define mini c fan config

[shooter2749]

two silentwings 3 as intake and one more exhaust is enough?

That should give you nice positive airflow yes.

i dont know if the silent wings fans have enough static pressure

It has to suck air through the dust filter, then through the small fan door AND the front panel door (Sides)

on my Fractal R5 with the GP14 fans i even noticed a lot of restriction with the front panel closed vs. open

 

 

if anything just make sure you remove the top HDD cage then yes

The front panel will greatly reduce the airflow of most fans. SW3's work fine.

 

@shooter2749 What are your specs? Why not stick with the stock case fans?

i really wish they would release a new version of the Define Mini case =[

Are the stock case fans too loud? What rpm are you running them at?

What components are you cooling?

If you're not sure, you can always see how the stock fans perform before deciding on whether or not to replace them.
