Nzxt fan configuration

[Franpadi]

Im planning to build the following pc:  https://pcpartpicker.com/list/666t4C

While I will buy everything on the us when I travel there I already got the case where i live, so what is the best fan configuration for the nzxt s340? It already comes with two 120mm one the rear and top. It has space for two 140/120mm on the front and the top one accepts a 140mm. Both of the fans are set to exhaust, which I was told is not a great idea, so what should I do? Also one of the fans goes directly to molex and another one goes from 3 pin to the same molex connector through an adapter. I was told you connect the molex connector to the PSU, but I cant see anywhere where it would fit on the photos. Also what should I do to connect them to the motherboard and be able to change the rpm? Thanks.

I also have an s340 and i left both fans where they were for about 2 months before adding extra fans. If you aren't planning on getting extra fans then move the top exhaust fan to the front instead. I'm not too sure about your molex question.

Did you have any issues? Also how did you connect the fans to powersupply or mobo? If you connected it to your mobo where you able to change the rpm? Just figured out they are both 3 pin that go to one molex. Thanks.

The fans have both a 3pin and a molex connector each. by default the two molex's are plugged into each other (this is normal, so they only need 1 molex plug from a power supply) but you can unplug that and use the 3 pins on your motherboard.

I run both of the fans that came with it through the power supply, if you want control over your fans you could look into getting a NZXT grid+ which allows you to connect up to six fans i think and control them using CAM on your PC or you could just connect them to your motherboard and try using other software.
