Fan configuration questions.
Hi there. I have the H440 NZXT case and I feel that the air flow in the front is quite restricted. I currently have 3 fans in the front and 1 in the back and I am getting 2 more fans soon. I was wondering whether I would be able to have a setup where the intake would be in the back with 3 fans and the exhaust in the front with 3 fans.
Also, I am getting an AiO 240mm cooler and I was wondering where the best position for it would be. Currently, I am thinking above the motherboard but I'm not 100% certain.
I have a feeling that these would be alright but I just want to double check whether this would work correctly!
Cheers!
Exhaust is generally in the back/top because 1. The majority of the heat is created in the back of the case (gpu/cpu) and 2. Heat rises. While you could have the intake in the back, you would have to push the hot air down and through your entire case, past your drives, and then out the front towards you. Also the front is more likely to have filtered fan grills since that's where the intakes almost always are.
