There are no fan spots on the top just a big ventilated area

Depends on the case. Normally I'd say an equal amount of intake and exhaust or perhaps one more intake is good, however if you have large openings in your case that aren't filtered I'd say one or two more intakes.

I cannot be held responsible for any bad advice given.

I've no idea why the world is afraid of 3D-printed guns when clearly 3D-printed crossbows would be more practical for now.

My rig: The StealthRay. Plans for a newer, better version of its mufflers are already being made.

oh I was still talking about ft05.

In a arc mini r2, it would be fine to have no exhaust, as long as you only use front/bottom as intake.

Exhausts are optional, never put a fan in the frontmost slot on the top.

Don't have top intake or bottom exhaust.

Hot air rises so

A: you will push air against natural flow

B: hot air comes out bottom, will rise outside case, will be intaked back in through top
