Cooler master k380 help me where to add fans ?

jai360 · Sep 2, 2017

Fine guys cabinet model is k380 im thinking about adding 2 fans to my PC currently it got just 2 fans
Front intake and CPU fan exhaust.
im thinking about adding back exhaust and bottom intake do check the pic below

so my question is
1. Bottom intake will directly blow air to gpu fans so adding one there is it a good idea ??
2. How much power 2 fans [ 120mm ] will consume ?? will it create impact on power supply [ sorry for this childish question just wanna knw ]

im gonna add basic 120mm fans nothing much

Here's the config

AMD FX 8350
Cooler Master 750 w PSU
Corsair 8 GB DDR3
Seagate 1TB Sata Drive
Cooler master Hyper 212X CPU
cooler master k380 cabinet
Dell 21.5 inch monitor S2240L
Asus strix r9285 GPU
APC ups 1KV

Yes your fan configurations are fine the front and bottom should be intake and the Rear and Top if there are any should be Exhaust
and the fan will take like 1w i guess you have enofgh power in your PSU so i dont think you should worry about that thing

1-personally i would add the 2nd front intake over a bottom fan--definitely add a rear exhaust though

2-fans dont use much power no worries there

Personally I would purchase dust filter

also the fan provided with the case for average, I would recommend Master fan pro and please for god sake clean up the cable it's a nightmare.

Hi, I see you have mounted hyper212x horizontally...how are temps inside your cabinet ..In my k380 build have it installed vertical... planning to swap it and also install a exhaust fan at top..from your pic can see it has some space, if we install the cpu cooler in push direction..any advise?
