Hi! I have the s340 elite case. The 2 case fans are set to intake. I am going to have a kraken x62 in the back of the case. Should I have the two standard fans on intake and the two fans with the kraken x62 cpu cooler on exhaust? I need the best cooling solution :) Thanks

The Kraken X62 is a 280mm AIO. It won't fit the back of the case. Did you mean the top of the case? If so, you can do it either way you like. There are different schools of thought on this. If you have a rear fan to exhaust the warm air out of the case, pushing outside air thru the radiator is the best way to cool it. That's the way I have my AIO coolers set up.

Really. The back of the case only has an opening for 120mm/140mm fans. https://www.pcper.com/files/imagecache/article_max_width/review/2016-10-29/DSC_0316.jpg
The Kraken X62 takes up twice that much room https://images10.newegg.com/BizIntell/item/35/146/35-146-056/NZXT%20Kraken%20X62.png
I need to see that.

Do you know what 140+140 is? Yeah, 280 right?
It does fit perfectly in the case, I have tried. Don't try to be cocky, please.

Not being cocky, but you seem to be. The back of the NZXT S340 Elite case has a single 140mm opening. The top of the case has 1 x 140mm opening.

If you insist you have a 280mm cooler mounted in the back (rear) of the case, please post a picture of it.

The front of the case will accept a 280mm cooler, if that's what you meant.
