Hi guys I'm going to buy 2 cooler master jetflo 120mm case fans and I have got another 120mm fan which came with the casing (cooler master masterbox 5). the casing has 2 intake openings  and 2 exhaust openings.

specs

i74790

CM  Hyper 103 air cooler

4 X 8GB 1600 mhz RAM

MSI H97 gaming 3 mobo

gonna upgrade to Vega 56 later

I am planning to mount the 2 CM jetflo fans on the front and place the other 2 fans which came with the casing on the back. would it be ok if i do this or suggest me something better. btw I have my PSU fan facing down so it wont matter i guess.. my room temp is around 28C.

id prefer 3 intakes to create positive pressure, but im sure someone will come along and tell me a better way to do it

2 intake+2 exhaust. with the intakes running at a slightly higher rpm, will create enough positive pressure

case pressure doesn't matter pretty much at all

firstly your case won't hold any sort of pressure at all , not even a fraction of a psi.

 

all that matters is that the air that was in the case , is exiting the case. if it is , then it's good.

I would call that neutral since there's always more things in way of intake.

Doesn't matter that much. Imo neutral is the one to go for.

Jay did a video about it a while back.  he had more exhaust fans than intake, but still had positive pressure due to the speed the fans were running at.

 

@OP

as far as performance is concerned,  it doesnt matter if its positive, negative, or neutral.  but positive pressure will help prevent as much dust buildup
