Hello everyone, so I just installed a 280mm push config radiator on the top of my case and a pull config 2-fan in the front of my case. I found out (my dumbass) that I didn't take into consideration that the 280mm + fans would not allow me to have a rear exhaust fan due to space issues. I am really close to being able to fit one in it, but it is just too thin of a space to put on there. If there are any thin 120 or 140mm fans anyone can find online, please send me links to em because I would prefer to have a rear exhaust fan than not. However, would I be okay with my situation? I have a Nvidia GTX 980 with a rear exhaust cooler as well.

So why do you really need an exhaust fan, why not run like this, notice your temps and then decide whether to get one or not. With that cooling frankly speaking you don't really need case fans.

Anything below 80 on the CPU is fine, depends on your overclock, room temperature and stress however.
