I am running a microATX board with a Ryzen 1700 in it with a wraith cooler (From my brothers 3900x CPU)(Not sure if that makes it different). I put it in a Corsair Obsidian 350D as I am planning to put a lot of hard drives in there. Area 3 currently has an intake fan (Its big might not 100% sure if its 150mm), however it has hard drives in the way which could mess with its airflow. What will be the best config for Area 1 and Area 2 so I can make sure nothing overheats. 

 

Don't feel like setting up water cooling would prefer an air solution.

i dont see how you would achieve an equal amount of pressure with those many fans, but i would prefer this setup, just make sure to always clean the pc

If you do a search. One of Linus' channels did a video on fan placement and how to get the most out of them.

I am not 100% sure but I thought I saw somewhere that if you put two fans on back of case for exhaust it is actually better to just have one.

You show 2F, 2B, 2T and I think people mostly recommend 2F, 1B, 2T.

Again not 100% sure on that but one of Linus's guys did a video on fan placement. In that video I think he recommended 2F, 1B, 1T.

Check that out if you haven't already.

Hope that helps.

Sorry that was suppose to a place holder. I was asking how can I achieve the equal pressure and get good cooling from those exhaust and entry points. With the front 2 fans being blocked by hard drives?

What graphics card and fans do you have?

You can adjust the pressure with rpm.

It actually has a GT 710 because I'm using the case for a server. The 710 has no fan. I think I'm having a cooling problem because of the front hard drives and not sure what I can to cool it.

Cooling problem for which components?
