Dual radiator fan directions.

Go to solution Solved by MaratM,

The best way to find most efficient way of airflow is to experiment. You have a large case and it is not a big deal to swap the fans on the top rad around (change them from intake to exhaust and vice versa) whatever gives you lower temps is the best. Also you have a monoblock on the cpu that cools the vrm’s so there is no need to warry about their temp and airflow around them

Hi all.   I can't deside on my fan directions for my top fans.   I want positiv air pressure because the case have an air gap on almost 10mm between the glass panels and the case frame.   The case is the TT view 71.   In the front I have a 280 radiator with 2 x 140mm fans pulling air in.  I have one 140mm exhaust fan.   The top rad is a 350 with 3 x 120mm fans.  I kind of want to have those to pull air in too to get a relativ dust free case,  but will it get too hot in there?  What do you guys think?   I'm not done building so swapping the fans around is easy now. 15512989444093955695754076725470.thumb.jpg.9aa1bf01569d15c7d28f44f184c05149.jpg

I would to the Rads intake and the rear as an exhaust for positive pressure.
