Hi I am building a System this week, My question is I am replacing every fan with Noctua. Since they are the best.


So This is what I am planning to do

Two Front 140 mm (INPUT) (Noctua NF-A14 FLX )

One Bottom By The Power Supply 140mm - INPUT - (Noctua NF-A14 FLX )

Top Radiator Mounted (Output) (H100i) - Replacing both stock fans with (Noctua NF-F12 PWM)

Side Fan 140mm (INPUT) - (Noctua NF-A14 FLX)

Rear Fan 140mm (OUTPUT) - (Noctua NF-A14 FLX)

Hopefully It wouldn't be loud. Since they are noctua fans. But still if they are I Wouldn't mind rather have them since the heat generated in summer time in the closet could be so much. I am using the case to build a media server / media pc. So it would be in the closet hooked up to tv via HDMI. Back to my the question is the configuration of the fans Alright ????

Thank You ! Yes, I am not that worried about sound since the R4 has got the sound dampening material. PLUS every fan in there will be Noctua except the power supply fan.

So the fan for input output are in right configuration ? or should I change something ?

Well, it's not silent, I only have the 2 stock fans, a hyper 212 evo stock fan, and a gigabyte gtx 760 in there and I can definitely hear it. Nothing super noticeable, but the dampening material will only do so much

Oh, sorry. Didn't know that was what you were asking. Yes, all input/output looks to be correct. If this PC will sit in a confined enclosure, be sure the enclosure has access to fresh air & good air flow in and out. Recirculating the same warm air won't cool very well.
