How to set up proper air cooling in Corsair 200R?

Fromwithin · Aug 17, 2014

I know there's negative/positive pressure, etc. But what I don't know is which i should be going for and why, Where in the case and which direction do I want to put my fans?

Here's my build thus far: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/x8w88d

In from the front, bottom and sides and out from the top and rear.

Does that case come with any fans, or do you just have the 2 extra fans you bought?

Generally the regular way airflow is done is to have one intake fan at the very front of the case and one outtake at the rear end of the case, so that the air gets sucked in the front, goes over all the hot components, and goes out the back. You want to set up the CPU cooler with its fan pointing out the back of the case, so that it helps blow air out the back, and if you have any extra fans add them to the top of the case as outtake fans since hot air rises, and if for some reason you have even more fans you can put them in the side panel as intake fans, but side panel fans really don't help that much.

Yes, the case comes with 2 fans, I just figured 2 more couldn't hurt! Thank you so much guys for your responses!
