Pressure Optimized, Or Air Flow Fans For Front Intake?

Pressure optimized fans are great for intake mounts and will help the air push threw the drive cage. Air flow fans are best for exhaust mounts.

This is why I love BitFenix Spectre fans, the best of both worlds. Not quite as high pressure as a true pressure optimized fan, but about 300% better than most normal airflow fans while still keeping high air flow. I agree with Ronald, pressure is best, but if you can, get a Spectre.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

Bitfenix Spectre Pro fans are also a great choice. ^^

Won't make any difference as your components are rated far higher than anything you think you should be doing with air flow .

 

Just put more air in your case than out , less dust .

 

The rest is BS makes no difference . ;)
