Fans needed

[ZeroOne01101101]

Hi, i need some fan-Advice for the s340 elite

 

Im considering 3x140 and 1x120, what do you think? (also, should i get an extra heatsink for the r5 1600 or does the stock cooler do?)

The stock cooler is fine up to about 3.8GHz. I'd get 3x 120mm for the front, 2x 120mm for the top, and 1x 120mm for the rear.

the s340 elite (link here:https://www.nzxt.com/products/s340-elite-matte-white) only holds 4 fans total

 

do you know any silent but good Fans for my gaming rig?

Be quiet silent wings are good AFAIK. I'd get Corsair HD 120 RGB fans, personally.

how about 3x be quiet! Silent Wings 3 PWM, 140mm and 1x be quiet! Silent Wings 3 PWM, 120mm

or should i stick with the defoult ones and buy just 2 of the 140 ones

the defaults are perfectly fine. i have the 2 defaults as intake in the front and one 140mm bequiet pure wings 2 on the top as exhaust (to help cool the cpu cooler). temps never get above 80 degrees celcius on my cpu, with 1.3V, and gpu never hitting 75 degrees celcius, with OC as well.

 

btw, remember to quote people if you want them to know you replied

could i just buy two of the before mentioned 140s and put them in the front and set the two rear ones to exhaust

 

my (planned) system:

gtx 1060

r5 1600

msi b350 gaming carbon

and the usual stuff

you can, but you will have neutral airflow. that isnt bad, you can definitely do it. personally i want positive, but neutral is just as good.

so you can do that what you wanted to do

yeah, noctua has some nice fans as well, if you like the color you can get them (most people dont like the color of them)
