Hey I just wanted to know if this setup is bad or could be better, I have the Noctua NHD-14 in my NZXT S340. Is the exhaust fan too close to the heatsink and may cause bottlenecking or bad airflow? I think it might not be healthy for the fan either since the Noctua fans are spinning at around 900rpm while the exhaust only spins at around 700/750 rpm. Should I move the fans around, get another matching Noctua fan or buy a controller? thanks!

Solution
You are good.
The objective is to get hot air out of your case asap.

So long as your temperatures are nominal, I would not worry.

You should probably have two 120mm intake fans in front to supply that fresh air.
