it fixed itself thanks
if i wanted to add some extra cooling to the units where should i place the fans top,bottom or sides?


It doesn't really matter that much, the thing that matters is that you need to keep the flow moving from A to B.

That is, don't point two fans into the miner for example, instead, put them one after the other so that the flow continues.

Visual representation:

Code:
Do this:
~~> MINER ~~>

Don't do this:
~~> MINER <~~

You can try different configurations, top/bottom, left/right, etc, and then measure how fast is the internal fan spinning after you changed something (look at the RPMs). Keep changing configurations until you get the lowest RPMs
