Hi guys,

My rig is in a Corsair 300R.

I have a FX-8350 paired with Sapphire Vapor-X R9 280X tri-X.

PSU is the Corsair RM 750W.

 

Please suggest any budget fans for the fan slots and.

Also the fan configuration.

Also i might go with the H100i .

Should i leave the default fans that come with the case??

Please suggest.

 

Thanks in advance.

Get a few be quiet pure wings :3

 

Also, you don't need a h100i, but if you want one, go for it, any reasonable tower heat sink will do the trick though.

 

I would leave the default fans in, unless they make annoying noise etc. I would chuck them out personally, but I'm a silence freak.

Am in India bro  :) .

Any suggestions to the heatsink.

Going to overclock just a bit and game at 1080p.

I've had good look with the be quiet pure rock in the past, really high quality for what it costs, although I don't know what you'd be able to find in your country.

Fan Configuration?

Just standard, Front,side and bottom as intake, and rear and top as exhaust. CPU should be blow towards the rear or roof, up to you.

You don't have to fill all the fan slots, just fill as many as you like.

Will the fans get in the way of the GPU??

Nope, not a chance, there's plenty of clearance for a set of side fans.
