Hey, I recently built my first computer, with a budget of €500.
During my build I noticed that there was not enough fan headers on my motherboard, My case came with 5 system fans (zalman z11 plus) two of which are not working, one caused a power surge and the other makes a clicking noise as it spins, these were the two side 80mm fans so I wasn't too bothered, but the case has 3 other 120mm fans, two of which can run at a time because of my motherboard. (msi 970a-g46).
My trouble is I have a choice of two fans, one is located at the back top of the case, one is located on the top back of the case and one is the front fan. (I'll put a link to the case at the bottom) Currently the two back fans are on, leaving me with no intake fans, My question is which two fans should I have running? I think it's making a lot of noise considering only two case fans are on and they're not running at full speed. I was thinking front and top back (the 2 LED fans) because my CPU cooler blows air out the top. (Hyper 212 EVO)
I would love for some help in this matter, if you have any other questions or advise please let me know, thanks for your time
