I did do some research but I have a couple of questions if you guys don't mind
So my case is Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-01 RED
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811139041
It has
1 back 120mm spot
2 front 120mm/140mm spots
2 top 120mm spots
Now my questions:
1. Why does it say 120/140mm for the front? Does this mean it fits both sizes? And if that is true, wouldn't the 140 be the obvious choice? Or does it mean 1 can be 120 and 1 can be 140 or both can be 120 but both cant be 140?
2. How do I setup my Intake/Exhaust? Do i make both the front and back fans intake, and make the top exhaust? I've looked this up and some sites recommend the side and top as exhaust, but I don't have any 'side' spots?
3. I have a CPU cooler already installed that points to the top of the case (exhausts out the top spots), so would that mean I would automatically want both top fans to be exhaust as well?
4. If i add another fan to the CPU cooler radiator (it has 1 so far), how should that be set up? Should both be exhaust or should 1 be pulling air in and the other exhaust?
5. My temps seem pretty fine without any fans installed so far (excluding the CPU cooler), so are these fans just mainly to keep dust/etc out?
Thanks guys
