Need some clarification...

Question
Go to solution Solved by jdidia1006,

So you'll want to pull air from in front of the computer wherever to place it.  That is where the most fresh air will be, most likely between you and the PC.  For example if your PC is on or in a desk there isn't much fresh air behind the desk.  You'll want to pull that cool, fresh air into the case from which ever side is facing forward.  So unless you are going to place the PC with the rear I/O facing forward you'll want to place your fans in scenario #4.

 

wait... I don't quite understand that... It's just a normal case.

 

 

Thanks, and thanks for the info  :D

 

 

But I only got 2 fan slots, one in the front, and one in the back.

So i'm not really sure how I should to position my case fans...

So I've got 2 fan slots (a block represents a fan slot). They both allow fans up to 80mm. So how should I do this?

 

1. Rear intake, front intake?

2. Rear intake, front exhaust?

3. Rear exhaust, front exhaust?

4. Rear exhaust, front intake?

4....I don't thinks its ever a good idea to do 1 or 3 and unless your computer is going to sit backward wherever you put then probably not 2.

your best bet will be front intake in the bottom and rear exhaust in the top
