Front 2x140's are intake. Bottom 120 is intake. Back 140 and top 120's are exhaust

I took the HDD cage out since i didn't need it. I moved ssd to 2.5 holder which is mounted on the backside and the HDD is mounted in the top below the cd drive


my temps are always good but I have central air so its always 72 in my room

i don't think he's understanding how to tell if a fan is faced correctly. exposed part of the fan is where the air is drawing in, making it intake. the back of the fan ( with the fan guard ) is where air comes out of. in your case, the rings should not be exposed for the intake fans, and the rings SHOULD be exposed in exhaust portions. make sense?

Everything is blowing air in the correct direction! I've done the paper check haha plus the directional arrows are a dead giveaway.

Oops I kind of want to replace the bottom fan with a cooler one, I didn't realize I had the extra space so I just used the h100i fan I had laying around.
