So I have an AeroCool Strike-X one case, to cut the long story short, I broke the AeroCool exhaust fan at the rear and I need to reconfigure the positioning of the fans while I buy some time to replace the broken rear exhaust fan.

Right now, 4 120mm fans are installed, positioned 2 at the side for intake and another 2 at the top for exhaust. Without the exhaust at the rear, I need to configure them.

What I have come up with is to remove 1 exhaust fan at the top and replace it to the rear exhaust, but I am not sure about the 2 intakes at the side.

Any thoughts?

Hi TerryFawkes
i would have done exactly the same thing remove 1 exhaust fan at the top and replace it to the rear exhaust
you will still have positive air pressure and that means less dust in your case

What about replacing 1 intake to the bottom? I never tried bottom intakes before and I do not know the pros and cons of it

I think that is the other model with "advanced" in its name
