Hi all, I wanna ask is it ok for my cpu to have 2 intake fans on the front, 2 intake on the top and only 1 exhaust fan on the rear. I am using Intel Stock cooler. My casing is tecware Nexus m. Do i need to swap the top fans to exhaust? All fans are 120mm. Thanks

 

My Comp specs as follow:

MSI b360m bazooka

i5-9400f

Asus Dual gtx1650 

Patriot Viper 2666mhz ddr4 8gb x 2

samsung evo 860 250gb x1

seagate 2tb x 1

steampunk 650w psu

Won't make much difference. I personally like to make the top fans exhaust (especially when they blow through a radiator), but it's more or less a matter of preference in your case.

Screwdriver specs: Long, pointy. Turns things. Some kind of metal.

On some occasions the average temperature tends to be better when the fans are positioned so that the cold air is fired directly at the component instead of taking the hot air out of the case, that is your task and you would have to do temperature tests to know what it is the configuration that best cools your equipment.
