Proper Cooling AMD 5 Ryzen 5600X

Pikachiu

Hello,

 

I am trying to figure out if I have good enough airflow/cooling in my PC. I am still very new to PC building and I am planning to just change a few specs on my current build. Main reason I am asking is because I am transferring to the Corsair 4000D tower that includes 2x 120mm fans. Additionally, I am planning to cool my AMD 5 Ryzen 5600X with a Cool Master Hyper 212 instead of the stock cooler just to make sure temps stay low.

 

Question is where should I put those 2x 120mm fans? Do I need one towards the back for this type of build? I was just going to stick these two fans toward the front panel.

 

Additional information on my specs:

 

750W PSU

Geforce GTX 1060 6GB

1 TB SSD

 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!

Depending on what you are doing one fan at the front and back with AMD stock cooler could be enough at minimum. I would just buy one 120mm fan to put at as exhaust, and use the AMD stock cooler and the 2 Corsair fans at the front. This might be enough and then decide if you need a after market cooler.

The stock case fans are already installed and they're fine where they are.
