Hello guys! I am planning a MITX build. Do you recommend ariflow or static preasure optimized fans for intake and/or exhaust? In cases like: Phanteks Enthoo Evolv mitx, NZXT Manta or Fractal design Define nanos. Planning to use BeQuiet dark rock pro 3 as cpu cooler(if matters). Thanks for all answers! :)

Airflow fans in case that has some space and static pressure in case that is small and has small amount of free space.

I suggest Noctua or Fractal Design fans

I already own 2 SP120 corsair fans and 5 Cougar vortex airflow 140mm fans(from friend). Is it a good to put the 2 corsair fans in the front and the 140 as an exhaust?

When buying fans you want to be careful of what you want, if it has a side window then I would recommend getting some LED fans with good air pressure, something like Corsair's LED's fan and also check the size, they can range, normally from 96mm to 200mm. Also I'd recommend intake on the front and exhaust on the back. Another thing to look out for would be how are you going to be connecting this all? Will it be through three pin split on the motherboard or will you buy an extension for the power-supply, (this will determine whether you have control over the fans), sorry I know the post is quite long especially for fans, but you never know this could come in hand :P. Glad to help (probably didn't but I tried).

NF-S12 for intake and exhaust if you dont mind the colour

or silent wings 2 are also great alternatives for pure black fans, performance wise it should lose to the s12 slightly

-sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately

Use cougar fans everywhere and Corsair on CPU heatsink
