Where should I place my case fans? (9)

[BadDrawer]

I just ordered the Corsair Air 740 for my new/first PC build. And well somehow I have an extra 6 high static pressure case fans from Corsair(120mm) please don't ask . The case comes with three 140mm fans, 2 in the front and 1 in the back. So what do I do with the extra 6 fans I have? I was thinking of something like this:

Front: 3 x 120mm (intake)

Top: 2 x 140mm (exhaust)

Bottom: 2 x 120mm(intake)

Back: 1 x 140mm (exhaust)

Total fans: 8 And well there will be a fan which I will not be using. I live in a country in which temperatures can get up to 110 (℉), so I need good cooling.

(sorry for my bad English)

if your pc is on a desk and not on the ground your totally fine and actually you have really good air flow. i cant tell you is negative or positive is good yet until luke ends that 1 year pc case fan thing. but i personally think positive is good.

i ran negative for a year or two and there was dust build up in the case panels but they blocked themselves up before any dust built up on the components. I also had filters on my intake fans so that helps

You can always do something like this.

 

I would recommend filtering your intake fans, just to keep things clean. That case looks like it might get a bit aggravating to keep clean with dust accumulating on the grates on the front of the case. I use negative pressure in my case. But my case is much different than yours, and is easier to block off intake areas for dust considerations.

I try my best. Someone had to liven things up a bit.

All intake except rear. Just make sure every intake has filters.
