Fan setup for Enthoo Evolv ATX

Armakar

Build is ordered and I want to order the fans to top it off.

 

I'm not quite sure where to have the radiator but I need to start planning my fan setup, ie, what size fans to use (eg the front and top takes either 2 140's or three 120's, which is better airflow?) and I need to know what fans im using and where they will be going.

 

Aesthetics are important, so i'd want them to all look the same, and be either A) colour neutral or B) asus aura sync 

 

Using a kraken X62. Anyone got any fans and fan setups that wont break the bank?

Well its smarter to but fans every ware on you radiator. So i wilt recument:

 

3 fans in front than the top 2 for the radiator, and 1 for the bottom place (HDDs) and 1 in the back. This will create the best airflow wit the least amount of dust build up

About £10-15 per fan, located in the UK.

3x front 120mm intakes and having rear and the rad at the top for exhaust would probably be better for airflow since the graphics card is more sensitive to heat than the cpu.
