So, i just ordered a nf-p12 redux for hyper 212x for more slient operation i don't know what to do with the fan i'm going replace.

Should i use it as exhaust and move the Fractal Design Dynamic X2 GP-12 120 mm to the front?

 

Case  -  fractal design define mini c

 

I may be wrong.

If you're replacing a fan because it's too noisy, why use it? 

What are your specs?

 

Moved to Air Cooling.

That's the same thing..

The system is only as quiet as the loudest component so it won't make much of a difference unless the extra fan improves on inadequate cooling enough that rpm can be lowered or if the fan that's too noisy is removed.

But it's going to be just as loud, if not louder cause you now have said fan + the one you've just bought in there spinning too.

Oh right....

so i plan to use until i replace all 3 case fans or buy another Fractal Design Dynamic X2 GP-12 120 mm

Pc specs on my profile

The stock case fans are fine already. You can just replace the cpu fan with the Redux and that should be enough already.
