| Q: Is it true that warm air may leak back into the case with these perforations? |
| A: | Yes, this is a part of our thermal design and is an acceptable disadvantage. The perforations eliminates the formation of hotspots within the PSU and lowers the temperature up to 10% than those without and extending the life of the PSU. This also allows Hiper to use a lower speed fan to enable a quieter operation.
