Hi everyone,
I'm building a game pc and need help with the airflow in the case. I don't know how to place the fans and when to use them as intake and when to use them as exhaust.
I have 4 case fans and 1 fan from the kraken x41.

My build:
CPU: intel core i5 7600K
CPU cooler: nzxt kraken x41
Motherboard: asus ROG strix Z270F
RAM: corsair vengeance lpx 8GB 3200MHz (twice)
SSD: Samsung 960 eco 500GB
HDD: wd 2TB 7200rpm
GPU: asus ROG strix 1060 OC 6GB
PSU: corsair rm650x
Case: nzxt H440 RAZER edition

thanks!

the case comes with 3 fans installed in front as intake and 1 rear fan as exhaust.
you should put the Crapken X41 on top as exhaust.

The fans for the case should be mounted as:
Front+Bottom=Intake
Rear+Top=Exhaust

The H440 doesn't have a bottom fan mounting position so it should be front 3 fans as intake and have two fans at the top for exhaust+the rear in exhaust as well.
