Fan configuration for new Build

JRJUK

Budget (including currency): £5000/6800USD

Country: UK

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Ultrawide 1440p/4k Gaming, Music Production, Streaming, Video Editing

Other details:

After years of dreaming I have finally had the big promotion at work where I'm finally able to afford to build a new PC

My current rig is peak Devils Canyon:

i5-4690K

16GB RAM

GTX 970

 

I've finalised a list of parts for me & have already secured a ROG Strix 3090 in white (https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/6nx9W4)

 

My question is, what configuration should I have my fans in?

My PC will be kept on a hard surface in a cool room (I hate the heat)

 

Thanks for your help

I would get a better case like the front panel has air going through it, you can keep it if you don’t put fans on the front because they can’t do anything

3 fans on bottom as intake.

3 fans on top as exhaust.

AIO on side as intake.

 

Post a picture when done. It should look gorgeous.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.
