Hello!

I gonna put together my new pc in a week, after 8 years with my old iron lady .
I'm completely puzzled, I have an INWIN GRone case, this beast can hold up to 10x140mm fans.

So first of all I have no clue what type of 140mm LED fan to pick. Can u give me some tips,brands,links on blue led 140mm fans worth to buy ?

Secondly need advice on how to setup the fans, mean how many intake,exhaust etc.

Here is a little paint about my case's fan slots(green ones :) ) :

I highly appreciate your help!

I have the same exact case, the white version, although mine is going to be liquid cooled. I will be using 3 gentle typhoons on the radiator mounted on top (pushing air upwards out of the case). I will have 3 light blue LED fans, one 140mm on back pushing air out, and 2 140mm on front sucking air in. I might throw a non led fan behind the cpu as well. There are also small white LED's on each of my 3 waterblocks (cpu, gpu, gpu) that will help fill the case with more white light. The tubing and water is clear/UV reactive, so it will have a slight blueish glow. Since the side panle is clear blue and I'll have white and blue LED's, I think it will look very nice.

If you have the white case as well, I suggest going with a few white and a few blue led fans, or either try an opposing color like red.

Just a reminder, the case comes with 5 fans preinstalled (pretty freaking amazing), 3 of which are LED fans.
And as a general rule, you want air getting pulled in from the front/bottom, and pushed out the back/top.

Thanks for your answer, I own the metallic grey version. As I know it has 3 red led fans..btw the side panel is blue so thats why I though blue leds will be better(thats true the inside will be 90% red-black/grey. I'll go for full air cooling, custom liquid cooling is not an option atm.

Liquid cooling is not as expensive as you think! Just have to know what you need and plan everything out lol. A good CPU + GPU loop could run you maybe $300-400 and drop your average temps by 20 degrees or more and keep the inside much cleaner/dust free. Not to mention the GRone has more than enough room to house all of it.

Sorry for trying to convert you :)

No problem, why I said its not an option now its not about only budget. Just won't go liquid atm, I won't play with things I have zero knowledge about. I spent too much time already planning my setup...
