Hello everyone.
I've recently bought that case at a very good price because it was an outlet (it has a little scratch in one side). But I have doubts about where and how to put coolers.
First, the case has place for two bottom coolers. The one below the graphics card is 120 mm and the one below the hdd area is 80mm. Should those go as air intakes or exhausts?
And then, on the side, it has a side air duct, for the processor. On Sentey's website they say that it is for the processor to receive fresh air from the outside, but as the cpu cooler exhausts air I think that's just not possible. So, is the air duct any good? Perhaps it prevents the PSU from sucking hot air from the processor, am I right?
And, my last question is, if I replaced the air duct with a cooler, should it be an intake or exhaust? The case has a cooler below the duct as an intake (guess it is for the GPU)

Thats the info Sentey provides, but I found it not very accurate. Too many air intakes and only one active air exhaust. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I'm asking this questions because I'll be doing some overclock (nothing extreme) and I want the best air flow on the case.
I would be very thankful for any answers about this, since I havent found much info on the net.
Thanks in advance
