Hi Everyone!
I know that Static pressure fans (SP) are good for providing air at greater force through obstacles in their path, with a broad stream of air. I know that Airflow fans (AF) provide the best airflow from one point to the other in open environments in a narrow stream of air.
So my main question is for cases with minimum ventilation or adequate ventilation, like the Fractal define series and Phanteks p400,which fans do you use for intake; and exhaust as well-AF or SP? Thank you!
 
Solution
I use a couple of Noctua's NF-A14 PWM for my intake and the stock Fractal fan for the exhaust in my r5. It works really well for a slightly positive air pressure.
You do want more pressure than some AF fans give to be able to suck in through the sides and mesh, and these fans have enough to do it.
