Nzxt h6 flow

[Klinaranze]

what is the best fan setup for this case if paired with a 360mm aio ?

 

[strange13930]

haw many fans do you have?

[Klinaranze]

i will use 2 140mm arctic p14 and 1 120mm silent p12 

case also comes with 3 fans preinstalled

 

[Millios]

Let the 3 pre instals as they are and just put the AIO as exhaust up

No need to over complicate it

Say you want to replace the pre installed ones then put the AIO as intake and put 1 maybe 2 as exhaust

Again no need to overcomplicate it

[strange13930]

I would put the aio on top as exhaust, and one fan in the back as exhaust, three on the front side panel as intake, and the rest on the bottom as intake

[Klinaranze]

can u explain what you mean by aio exhaust up also how should the other arctic fans be setup 

on nzxt sites it says it should only have 1 120 mm exhaust which i dont believe

by aio on top as exhaust, it would be mounted to the very top of the case with the fans positioned so they blow air out the top of the pc, and I would put the 120mm as exhaust in the back to use the slightly larger fans as intake.

thank you so much !

Mount the AIO so it blows the air out the top

That would probably leed to negative pressure which isnt that good

The H6 doesnt have bottom intake (to my knowledge) so you;d have 2 140mm intake and 4 120mm exhaust (3 aio 1 rear)

Ideally for good results you want the same in and out for neutral pressure or a little more in for positive pressure

it does have two 140 mm mounts on the bottom

the aio is 360mm

I'll assume you didnt quite catch that 3 aio means 3 aio fans

Again that would not work with the

Cause negative pressure is worse than possitive pressure or neutrall pressure

Best case scenario is 2 intake bottom 1 intake from 3 exhaust top for neutral

I thought 360mm was the fans size,not the radiator
