I will soon be building my frist computer, and I have the oarts on the way. My case is an MZXT s340, and my cpu cooler is a corsair h100i. The only spot the radiator will go is in the front, and I was wondering if it would be better to have the radiator as a case intake or exhaust. If it is an intake it will be filtered, unlike the top and rear fans which I believe do not have filters. I will be using an AMD fx-6300, and I do plan to overclock it some. I got a deal for the cooler, which is why I chose it. Would it be worth having it as an intake for the sake of filtered air, even though the rest of my case will be slightly warmer?

VGA: GTX 770(got a good deal on that too)
