I have 4 fans but only using 3 right now

 

3 120mm

1 140mm

 

And  my cpu fan

 

i have a intake in the front exhaust in the back and intake on the top (the 140mm blowing air on my cup cooler. 

 

Is that good? Should I use my 4th fan?

if you do intake on front and bottom, exhaust on back ant top creates good airflow. 

 

hot air rises, and the direction of airflow will cause the air to flow over the Mobo chipsets, as well as helping the GPU intake fans.

 

the exhaust on back and top also help to cool the CPU cooler,

Ok, I have the galaxy-01.

 

Here is my config:

 

exhaust fan top of back

exhaust fan back of top

intake bottom of front

intake on side panel

 

 

 

its ok to have the front fan down by the drive bays.

adding more noise.... the temperatures wont be affected anyway. just adding unnecessary noise in my opinion.
