@ @TheRuke @whatthe_fuzz  Also guys, the first choice in poll will give me positive pressure right? I don't want dust :(

It should be more equal than positive. No sure though.

Equal intake/exhaust is better than positive pressure anyway.

Really? I though there wasn't any cons about positive pressure. And also, maybe because I put dust filters it would reduce the airflow so there would actually be more air exhausting than entering?

Equal intake and exhaust just means better cooling. 

It depends on the filters. After all, the NF-F12's are running through a rad, right?

Well yeah. The filters are FF123B (http://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=393&area=en) and I will be putting them only on the NF-S12A FLX and on the GPU intake.

It should be fine. I wouldn't worry too much about dust especially with the filters.

Ok yeah, and also I might get the Colossus. The way they made the air vents look way better than the solid panels of the prodigy and it's smaller.

Quite the ironic name I might say for such a small case.
