Phanteks Enthoo Pro M - Airflow

[benbrigain]

First of all I want to say that I have never built a PC before so this may seem obvious but I am unsure which is the best way to install my fans and water cooler.

I have 4 different screenshots of ways I feel are viable to cool the Enthoo Pro M but would like to know if one way is better / more effective than the others.

 

Case: Phanteks Enthoo Pro M

Mobo: MSI X99S SLI Krait 

PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA NEX 750W 80+ Gold

CPU: Intel Core i7-5820K 3.3GHz 6-Core

GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 970 4GB SSC ACX 2.0+

Memory: Kingston HyperX Fury Black 16GB (4 x 4GB)

Storage: 1 x WD Caviar Blue 1TB

               2 x Sandisk SSD Plus 240GB 

Water Cooler: Cooler Master Nepton 240M 76.0 CFM

Fans: 1 x Phanteks Enthoo Pro M stock fan

          2 x Corsair AF140

 

EXHAUST

INTAKE

 

Way 1

 

Way 2

 

Way 3

 

Way 4

 

 

If there's a way better than these four please let me know. Like I said I has little to no experience in PC builds

 

Thanks

I vote way 2, will exhaust the heat well and has enough intake

Rad blowing in from the front, outlets in the back/top. Or way 2.

 

In general you want positive air pressure, which is when you have more air entering than leaving. It reduces the amount of dust in the case.

1 or 2 but ditch rear fan. You don't need to populate all fan slots to get best result. You can add fan later if temps are issue.

An old thread but I would be VERY interested in what was the outcome of this discussion.  Which one was used?
