I have recently purchased the Antec C8 ARGB for a case and the Arctic Freezer III 360 for my rad. So far I have left the C8 default so 2 intakes on the bottom and 1 exhaust at the back with the addition of the 360 exhaust rad on top. The issue I am running into is finding white intake fans for the side that look good facing towards you and intaking air. I originally bought the ARCTIC P12 PWM PST A-RGB, but found out that while they look amazing when setup exhausting if you turn them around you have an ugly crossbar in the way. I have searched High and low and have been unable to find case fans that are designed to look good intaking or both ways. Am I missing something or do manufacturers not make intake fans? (p.s. this is my first time building a computer).

Many thanks!

What you're looking for is called "Reverse Blade" fans, and not all manufacturers do them.

As far as I'm aware, Arctic is not one of them, so don't expect the jokingly low prices of their 5-packs.

 

Thermalright and Lian Li examples.

I've gotten to know some stuff, but am far from omniscient, so don't take my advice as gospel and wait for other opinions - I just like throwing in my two cents when I can.

Thank you so much! I went ahead and got the Thermaltake fans as they look similar enough to the Antec Fans already installed!
