Coolermaster Mastercase 5 Fan Setup

Hello everyone

 

I currently have a Mastercase 5, and am looking for some new fans to replace the stock ones

 

I have read that static pressure fans are best for intakes. However, the Mastercase has removable drive bays and a front grill, so there is little resistance.

Should I get Air Flow style fans or Static Pressure fans. (bearing in mind I don't mind if they are too loud, as I have ANC headphones)

 

 

Thanks

Callum

either way would work, I'd go with static pressure if you have a drive bay right in front of where the fan will be though

I was gonna move the drive bay to the basement so there is literally between the fans and the components

the filter in the front isn't that restrictive so it won't hinder AF fans, so get whatever fans suit you. personal experience says moving air is 80% of the battle so if you really don't care cheap fans will keep you pc within a few degrees of the more expensive fans, even if it sounds like crap
