Hey guys, long time lurker. First time poster. I read many of the different articles posted regarding fan intake, exhaust, static pressure vs airflow. I'm still a little unsure regarding my current new build.
I recently put together a new build using the Corsair 500D SE. I have a front mounted Corsair 100v2. The fans I am using with the radiator are the Corsair LL120 RGB that came with the case. There is one additional LL 120 mounted to the front as an intake also. I have two Corsair LL 140 RGB mounted to the top as exhaust. One LL 120 RGB mounted to the back as an exhaust also. I have an i7 8700k running at stock 3.7ghz.
My concern is that my idle temps run between 30-40c I'm aware that is perfectly fine but with my previous case and same build I was idling in the 20s.
My question is if I wanted to put new fans in the front and remove the LL 120s mounted to the radiator what kind of fans do you guys would think best or recommend? Static pressure or airflow? I am looking for 3 120s in size.
