Posted April 11, 2016 I would recommend using more exhaust fans than intake fans Unsure what power supply to pick? Check out my HTPC build.

Usually you want to balance the number of fans in taking, and exhausting.

Posted April 11, 2016 Just use what comes with the case. Usually like 2. Extra fans doesn't make a big enough difference.

I have 2x120mm on my front radiator, which are are 1300 RPM, and then a rear 140mm AF going about 1800RPM (all is barely sound noticeable) and everything is very cool inside my case. Id say, max of 4 fans, anything more you can hear the hum of your computer more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can make so many configurations with only a few fans and get maximum performance and cooling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even put another magnetic filter on the back so when the PC is off, dust doesnt go in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
