I have an h440 (white) and I'm wondering what the best airflow set up would be. The case comes with 3 120mm fans behind the front shroud and 1 140mm fan on the back of the case. I plan on buying a few more fans to replace or support the current ones, I was looking at the NF-A14 PWM. I have a Kraken x61 that will be occupying the two top fan mounts in the back. I also have a Gigabyte G1 GTX 980 Wind force, it has three fans and I was wondering how that would affect air flow.

How can I situate these to optimize air intake and heat dissipation? Also, I would like a quieter system if possible (I know the NF's are loud) If you could suggest any fans that have decent air flow and are silent (I can't find Scythe Gentle Typhoons, something comparable would be lovely) pleaseee tell me.
