Installing Your Computer in an Enclosure Installing your computer in an enclosure can restrict the airflow and impact your computer's performance, possibly causing it to overheat. Use the following guidelines when installing your computer in an enclosure. NOTICE: The operating temperature specifications indicated in this guide reflect the maximum ambient operating temperature. The room's ambient temperature needs to be a consideration when installing your computer in an enclosure. For example, if the ambient room temperature is at 25° C (77° F), depending on your computer's specifications, you only have 5° to 10° C (9° to 18° F) temperature margin before you reach your computer's maximum operating temperature. For details about your computer's specifications: • For a mini tower computer, see "Mini Tower Computer Specifications" on page 35. • For a desktop computer, see "Desktop Computer Specifications" on page 97. • For a small form factor computer, see "Small Form Factor Computer Specifications" on page 175. • For an ultra small form factor computer, see "Ultra Small Form Factor Computer Specifications" on page 241. • Leave a 10.2-centimeter (4-inch) minimum clearance on all vented sides of the computer to permit the airflow required for proper ventilation. • If your enclosure has doors, they need to be of a type that allows at least 30% airflow through the enclosure (front and back).
