Hello, sorry for the gravedding with a little old post. I have an identical case (different brand, but equal in every other way), but I tryed some different configuration and I'd be glad to receive some feedback.

This good boy have now a 7 fan array:

3 intake on the top;

1 exaustion on the back;

3 exaustion on the front.

(ignore the 2 fans facing the side, they are there just for aesthetics =D)

The idea is that the last top fan (from front to back) will push air through the radiator straight into the back exaustion fan, taking the hot air away from the system. As for the rest... well, there's actually no big idea behind the rest ^^''

 

I am pretty sure the idea behind the case was to have the 3 front fans as intake and the rest as exaustion (or maybe the first top fan as intake too). My point was that I really think the fans look pretty nicer when facing the intake side. 

 

So, what do you guys think? I am open to suggestions! I've even considered switching to air cooling, because the best I could get was 40ºC (104ºF) while iddle, which seens to be a little to much...

 

Btw, here are the specs:

- Ryzen 7 2700x

- Asus Rog Strix X470-F gaming

- 16gb Corsair Vengeance Pro RGB 3200mhz CL16;

- Rx580 8gb ddr5 graphics card;

- Kingston A2000 M.2 NVME 480Gb ssd;

- Gigabyte B700H semi modular power suplly;

- Gamemax Iceberg 120 rainbow AIO liquid cooler;

- Gamemax M908 Infinit - TR case.

 

Thanks in advance!

3 intakes on front and exhaust from the back and top-back slots. Also move radiator to top front intake slot and put another fan on it so its push-pull.

 

Also move gpu to the x16 slot so there is more room below it and air circulation improves.
