Looking into getting an Enthoo Pro Case to replace my current one. The questions I have are what would you guys recommended for fan placement for intake and exhaust.
I’m kind of a noob when it comes to cooling. I will be getting a Corsair H110 280mm for cpu cooling and I would like to have the radiator on top as an exhaust to prevent high amounts of dust getting sucked in.
What fans, and how many would you guys recommend I buy and where should I place them?

 

The parts inside will be

 

Motherboard:  Intel DZ87KLT-75K
Processor:  Intel Core i7-4770K @ 3.50GHz
Power Supply:  EVGA Supernova 1300 G2 Power Supply 1.30 kW
Graphics Card 1: GeForce GTX 680 4GB
Graphics Card 2: GeForce GTX 680 4GB
Memory:  Kingston 16GB DDR3 1600Mhz (2x 8GB)

 

Eventually I’ll be replacing the 680s with newer cards or Titans.

Honestly, keep your 680's and grab an 880 or two when they come out, heck, you could even wait for the 9xx series :)

As fir the cooling, I dont think you can fit any fans there, as I believe it is just for front I/O

Ya, thinking of upgrading the cards when 800s or 900s come out with Direct X 12
Here’s my plan so far, what do you guys think and what should be changed? Also any secret locations where you can put more fans that the manual doesn't tell you about?

 

Should the rear be intake or exhaust?

All the testing I have watched over the years, even on non-airtight cases(which most of them are) shows that the closer you get to balanced intake and exhaust the better the internal and component temps get.  

Do you have some testing that shows the Enthoo Pro bucking this trend or is this just your assumption?
