400r airflow plans

[TheEpicCanadian]

Hey forum, I recently bought a Corsair H60 and I used the suggested mounting position of having it pull air into my case. In total, I have 5  fans around my case, in the front, I have 2 Bitfenix Spectre Pros pulling air in, I have 2 Gelid WING 140mm fans exhausting air out the top and I have the one corsair fan that case with the cooler pulling air into my case from the back. I am buying a Gelid 120mm for the H60 because the stock fan is loud as hell. I attatched a picture of how my current fan setup is if my text was unclear. If you can't see the picture for whatever reason, here is a link to an imgur page.

I think there are only 3 spots the H60 can fit. The top 2 slots and the back.
I don't think it will be long enough for it to reach the front of the case

Best spot for it would the back (The green indicator via image link) . It can fit push pull setup if you want.

Should it be pulling air into the case or pushing out?

You should take the pressure inside the case into considering. I like to have my case under positive pressure to keep dust out. In my setup I exhaust via the PSU fan only. All intake fans are filtered. This way, no dust is sucked in through little gaps.

I leave my side panel off :P

I'd do pull because push can create alot of dust between radiator

If you keep your side panel off all the time, all your thinking about airflow is obsolete. Let all fans blow into the case. Pull on the radiator for the reasons "Pure" described above.

I have my r4 to only exhaust through the back 140mm fan and the psu fan. It makes the xase have positive air pressure ensuring level of dust in the case is reduced.

If I CAN do push/pull, should I? Or just pull for dust prevention?

On thick radiators push/pull can provide better airflow. The H60 has a really thin radiator. I don't think "push/pull" makes a huge difference against just one fan. Just pushing is a little more quiet while pulling keeps the dust on the exposed side of the radiator making it easier to clean.

Alright, thanks for the help! Will be putting it on pull ASAP.
