So I'm thinking of building a PC and I am not so sure what's the best way to place my fans
My case is an NZXT S340 Elite and it can hold 1 rear fan 1 fan at the top and 2 fans in the front
I want to have a 1 fan mounted radiator in my case but I'm not sure where the best place is to put it for airflow
 
Solution
Front should be intake, where you should also put a potential radiator to allow cool air enter the case. Rear and top are always as exhaust!
as per manufacturers web site specification sheet : https://www.nzxt.com/products/s340-elite-black

Fan Support
Front: 2x 140/2x120mm
Top: 1x 140/120mm (1 x 120mm FN V2 Fans Included)
Rear: 1x 120mm (1 x 120mm FN V2 Fan Included)

Radiator Support
Front 2 x 140 or 2 x 120mm
Rear 1 x 120mm

Clearance
GPU Clearance With Radiator: 334mm

that said, intake in front, and bottom, exhaust in rear and top
