Hello I'm interested in getting the LIAN O11D or some case form factor like it. My question is about the air flow difference between Side Panel mounted fans vs Front Panel. There aren't videos that I can see so if there is a

member of LTT that scans the forums for ideas to steal for a video this is one! But fr is there a noticable difference? I'm just picturing in my mind that the air flow may get messed up from the way the direction goes unless I'm thinking to hard about this. Let me know your thoughts.

 

Specs:

There is small difference, But not something to be worried about. What cooler will you be using?
