Hello! I just bought all of my parts for my first build ever, but I want to add more fans and LED light strips in the case. The thing I don't understand and need help on is exhaust and intake for the fans. If you have an NZXT Phantom case where would you recommend putting in your exhausts and intakes? I appreciate any help!

Here are my components! http://pcpartpicker.com/user/jball12345/saved/4qY4

For the exhaust fan I'd recommend getting the biggest size fan you can get which I guess would be either 120 / 140mm. And as it's an exhaust fan you'd put that at the back of the case. Intake fan's would be at the front and as before as large fan's as you can get. The 140mm moves the same amount/more air than the 120mm fan would whilst moving slow thus a quieter system. Also try get some top mounted fan's.

Good fan brand's would be Corsair & Noctua

Good luck :)
