The middle front fan is exhausting instead of intaking. Unless it's not a standard fan. Also, the fans on the NH-D15, are they mounted correctly? They look crooked to me. Nice build nonetheless, and that's a hell of an overclock.

Thanks the OC is fantastic and the NH-D15 fans are crooked because my 980ti wont fit right unless they are like that. 

 

And yes i have to reverse the fan

Oh I see! I didn't notice that the GPU is right up against the CPU Cooler. Makes sense!

Should I be worried about my 980Ti not fitting due to me using hard tubbing?
