The pic is currently how i have my set up.

The PSU has a fan facing up into the case not bottom outside.

The GPU has 2 fans.

My cpu cooler is a noctua nh-d15 with 2 stock fans

The case fans are all Noctua nf-a14

I have 2 more open slots for a 140 mm fan up top and 1 on the bottom next to the psu.


Idle temp is around 32-35 and on load it goes up to 50 max.

Core i5 6500 OC'd to 4.5 on 1.3v


I wanted to put more fans into the case.

Should I put 1 more intake in bottom and 1 more up top?

or should I put 2 more intakes 1 on top and 1 on bottom.

Any suggestions would be great.

Thank you

If the case is vented underneath the power supply, then the power supply should be installed fan - down.
