Good day fellow TechTippers

 

I am currently refreshing my ago old PC that has lasted me around 10+ years (AMD FX-8150, Nvidia 560Ti and other old parts).  My budget is a little higher as I plan to build a PC that will last through the years so I get higher end parts as you will see in my parts list.  The biggest question that I have or advice that I am looking for is the airflow as I do not want to create any major issues.  The graphics card that I will be going with (not on the list as I am still deciding on the version) will be the 3090.  The case that I have decided on is the Lian Li 011 Dynamic and the Kracken X73 for my AIO cooler

 

Regarding the airflow and from my research (which may or may not be totally accurate) my plan is to:

 

Intake

- NZXT Kracken X73 AIO on the side mount with (Tubing at the bottom to prevent air pocket)

- 3 120m Fans mounted on the bottom

 

Exhaust

- 1 120m fan at the back of the case

- 2 140m fans at the top

 

Please let me know what you think or if you see any other things with my part list that may jump out at you.  All the fans are not included as I am looking to get the Noctua or Corsair.  Here is the link to my PC Part Picker list.  There is no cooler on the list as I am hoping that stock will come in and they will be updated to provide the new cable for the 3090 as the factory is a bit short from what I have seen.
