Hey I'm a noob in case mod, so I need someone to clarify things up for me. I did google around, and I found out that there are two settings that people use, so I just want to ask which fan layout is the better one

-the one I'm talking about is the blue fan (12cm fan)
-should it be sucking air in? or it should be sucking the hot air out?
-some people said it should suck in, but there is also a number of people recommend to suck the air out



-the casing is just like this, so I hope I wont see posts like 'add more fan' or something (if really-really-really necessary, then fine)

make it intake,
coz make the cool air flow into ur com.

blue front panel fan normally is for intake but in one of lian-li casing some ppl configure it the other way round.

90% ppl will put it as Intake coz it draw the cools air in to cool down the HDD area

Ahh so the fan sucking in is a more popular choice then? thx

guys,just wondering does iusing high cfm intake fan efficient or it doesnt make much/any difference if using normal cfm fan

Intake would be much better. And it will keep your airflow in one direction.

High CFM is better of course.

Front in Rear out .. Bottom in Top out. mostly ppl use this concept.

better if u dont put ur fan at the drawed location (blue fan)... focus more on exhaust fan...

when there is outlet... there will be air coming in..

but if inlet powerful than outlet... air circulation will be kacau and making noise and inefficient air circulation will happened

unless.. u already hav 2 exhaust fan.. then can put intake fan at the front...

exhaust > intake

Then u will find dust anywhere in ur casing

I'm using 3 intake and 3 exhaust. All the CM 90 CFM fans. Vibration is

front air suck & back air suck out

pull & push

same answer as all above, front air in,at the back air out,use performance fans and filter from dust

must put filter or it will look like this



wahahahahahaha

Err... okay.... How long haven't you cleaned out your casing?

so if the casing have 2 side fan, and a blower psu like dis....which setup among below pic is the best? or there is other better setup than shown below?

(given that red fan=12cm, green fan =80cm)

Nice dust bro,hahaha,how long u dont clean it??

Ummm it's pretty much settled for my casing, added an LED fan there so in darkness it is kind of projecting the meshed panel on the wall

Anyway I would probably mod the top panel and add either two 8cm fan or one 12cm, based on my current setting above, will the fan(s) perform better sucking in or out?

waaaaaaaa 1 year? 2 year? hehehehe even my no case sig didnt colllect that much of dust

1X 120mm & 1X exhaust is enough already.
