Thanks man.

Yeah putting top right fan in push out direction would be idiotic coz i will dismiss air flow from front fans. i'm just thinking same top right one might be become a blockage for air coming from front ? and top left is pushing hot air down towards GPU pcb which is coming from the CPU heatsink or not ?

i just followed more cooler air in then more hot air out rule .

It shouldn't be a problem. In all honesty, without the use of shrouds, air just vaguely ends up where you think it goes. 

Hi guy.

its my first build

i've bought cheap used parts except case and PUS coz i thought if anything go south that won't be a big deal.

i'm not new in PC gaming but before this i was used to buy branded ones put a GPU and play.

now i'm just wondering either i put fans correctly or not!

case is carbide Spec-01

GTX-750ti Gigabyte

and CPU cooler is hyper 212 plus

all the fans are running at 1800RPM.

Please advise.

Should be fine. The top fans might be pulling in dust, but shouldn't be too much of an issue. It's good that you directed the top right fan to be pulling air in rather than pushing out as the latter would take air away from the CPU cooler.

Yeah, no. That's not how any of this works. That top fan would need to be orders of magnitude stronger than the cpu fan for it to matter.

 

@Edward666Top fans should be exhaust.

Is the top vent obstructed? And the front? Is the side panel mesh?
