Is this a good airflow solution?

Go to solution Solved by LogicalDrm,

but hot air rises, everybody knows that, do you even know what you are talking about? 0_0

In passive scenario yes. But since you are working with such small case, fans will be more in effect than passive air flow.

Anyway, in pic PSU and GPU will use same air. Both will be loud and hot. CPU is OK'ish. Bottom intake, rear exhaust would be best for it. If you can, add intake next to HDD cage.

Hello,
I'm modding a old case of me. But I'm not sure about the way I want the airflow to be.
It's a little childish drawing but the paint is still drying that I applied so I have to wait to put in the components, but I wanted to know what you guys think about this airflow configuration
Should I replace the 120 mm fan next to the videocard blowing the air up or?

 

The only exhaust I will have will be the 140 mm wan in my powersupply and from the empty places between de videocard and the power supply
I want it to come in on the back by the cpu cooler (coolermaster tx3) and then goes up to the videocard and the powersupply

What are you guys thinking of it? xs
First time working with airflows (It's to make a as quiet possible case)
