Hi,

I plan on picking up a second gtx 770 to run SLI. My current case is the Corsair Carbide 500R, stock fans at the moment. I'm a little worried about my ventilation - was hoping I could get some suggestions on proper aftermarket fans and a good airflow setup for this case. I have very little knowledge of proper aftermarket fans / airflow setups.

I was thinking -
1. two front 120mm intake fans
2. one 200mm side intake fan to blow some air directly onto those hot cards
3. two 120mm top exhaust fans and/or 1 rear 120mm exhaust fan

Suggestions very appreciated.

On a side note, I'm currently running the Corsair HX750 PSU, this should be plenty sufficient for my 770 SLI correct?

Yes your PSU should be enough for SLI :

GeForce GTX 770 2-way SLI - On your average system the cards require you to have a 750 Watt power supply unit as minimum.

You can go with this setup :

1. Front intake 120mm x 2

2. Rear Exhaust 140mm x1

3. Top Exhaust 200mm x 1

4. Side Intake 200mm x 1 or 120mm x 2

And when choosing a GPU, look for the better cooling option one's. Good luck.
