Dear @skizzosjt, thank you very much for your kind reply! I think I am understanding. So, I'll mount a new fan on that lateral panel as intake. I dont want to push my cpu, so I can save some money here and invest on 2 more fans to mount on the top of the case...here I have a lot of place! It is good to put them intake here also? I was thinking to put one next to the front and maybe the other one above the cpu. Or it is bettere to mount one on the bottom as exhaust? Sorry for the questions but you are helping me a lot and I'd like to learn something!

I had the i5 8400 with a mobo asus TUF, I had never problems with cpu temperatures. So I have bought a similar one. i5 11400f with another asus tuf mobo (b560m plus wifi). When the cpu touched 100° I was a little surprised. luckly I have thought to enter the bios and check for something different from "default". From that time I have never touched again such temperatures and usually it goes 70-80 when I am playing. I dont know if it is good, but for sure it is better.

I have saved my last comment...a little afraid to loose what I have written For the docking station, I think I'll look for something that can operate with fans and protect from dust. I have also a little girl here that sometimes does not look where she goes...and I cant loose my data!! But I have to find something good. Now I have bought some argb items and I am having fun...I have put led all over the desk ahahahhaah

Ciao @skizzosjt Just returned on my pc now! I post you some photos of my case, so I can explain better: This is my case. You can see my first HD on the bottom. Here I have a good temperature. I have only one fan behind (120) and 2 front (140). I think I'll add 1 on the panel you showed me, it is a good idea. And then I'll mount some on the top. Id like to mount a liquid cooler on my cpu...but I dont want to remove mobo..I cant reach it from the behind... How you can see, there is a good place for a 120. But I'll have to remove a little panel from behind. That is the back. You can see a secondary HD put in vertical and the little panel that I can remove to insert the fan. On the right psu and over the other HD. I have choosen to put on the external slot to gain 2 cm from the mobo. Now you can see the hole removing the little panel. I dont understand anyway where to put the fan. From the back or from the front? I was thinking to make the fan able to push air from Front to behind, it is right? That is what you call "intake"? I am not sure that it'll push a lot of air because the HD is a bit far from here and it is not directly hit, but maybe it can help to make some air moves. Here we say that "something is better than nothing". I was also thinking to put a little fan (100) in the missing hd slot, maybe I can obtain a good direct airflow...I am not so sure for the vibration, but I can make a low rotation on it...

Thank you for yours replies! I have changed my pc. Usually I take classic case with a good airflow and I am used having HD next to frontal fans. I have inserted in the order a case but the sellers reported me that the case was not able to support 4 HD, so I have changed it with a bit of hurry, without looking it very well. I have choosen a Lian Li 011 mini air, I have read review and looking at it seemed good. These new case separate PSU and HD in a not visible area, behind the mobo. I have stocked my two HD and their temperatures were of 40° and 50°. I dont like that, so I have put and HD on the front, fixing it on the bottom of the case, it is not the right place but now the temperature is 31°. Also my CPU were a bit hot, but maybe I had some optimized option in bios that I have removed and now seems to be acceptable. anyway I have the other HD stocked in the invisible area and his temperature is about 38-40°, there are no fans there, so I was thinking to move the 2 hd in another place. I admit that having it on the bottom does not look so good... Yes, you are right. I am not so good to handle different situations, so I prefer to use them separately. I'd like to see them for what they are. Thank you for your suggestion! I have seen that product and it is the easiest way to handle what I need. What do you think about dirt? What do you think about little hurt that can take? And what do you think about temperature? Yeah, maybe I a bit worried about my hd, but you know...I am working hard on my LB config from 3-4 years, and I cannot loose all for a mistakes. I have a little backup on an 8TB...and I have to update it. In fact I'd like having more spaces, like 3-4 slot, to add also my backup. Can work that? What do you think? Thank you again for your time!

Thank you for your reply! Your external device was for 1 HD or for more HD in the same device? Because I have 2 differents HD that I'd like to move outside the case in a single external device (with a good cooling system) and I'd like that windows will see them separately...I have inserted too many paths to change all. But I admit that I dont know what I am talking about, I dont know which system/device/hardware can be used.

Hi, I have changed my pc and I am not very satisfied with the new cooling system. So I was thinking to put my 2 hd (14 and 18 TB) on an external hub/dock station or other linked to my pc with USB (3.2 gen2 or gen 1) But I dont know which hardware to use. Any of you use LB/BB on external hardware? Can I use the first that I like? Can you help me please?

I see the game. Maybe you are right, it'll happen soon I totally agree. We have time to improve quality but meanwhile something is better than nothing.

it was not marked for deletion from what I can see. So I have marked it. Let's wait to see. Anyway you can help moderating to speed up the process

Thank you a lot Retro808, and sorry for the questions ☺️

to be honest, what I'd like is: I pay and I receive the licence, then I prepare a USB with LB installed and with his licence. Do you think I can do something like that?

To be sure If I buy a licence for a friend, in the form, I can insert his email and then I insert my Credit Card to pay? he'll receive the mail with activation or the licence? I'd like only to be sure that he can have the licence but I can pay for it. (I dont want that he knows what I am doing before I have done it, it's a surprise!)

Thank you very much, Retro808. 🥰

Hi all! I know that this software is worth each cent of his cost. I love it and I try to support it as I can. I have a very dear friend, and I'd like to gift him a license. He is on hyperspin, gameex and other frontends but he is not satisfied, and we know, here, that only Launchbox is the best program! So, I think I have seen in the past a sort of grandfather or friend discount. There is something like that at the moment? Sorry for the miserable question. Regards LB FOR EVAHHHH

I have thought that hundreds of times! I have something like 218k but in 16 TB. I'll never try them all. But...you know...because I dont know 🤣 I am just lost! I have fun with retroachievements right now!
