Hello community. Need advice about air cool.
ryzen 2700x \ palit gtx 1070ti superjestream \ asus x470-f gaming

case ZET Rare H1
2 fans front 120mm \ 1 rear 120mm

Need to add top coolers to make some balance.
im thinking to put 2 x 140mm (dont know, maybe it will be more than enough?)
which one is good:

DEEPCOOL RF140 [DP-FRGB-RF140-1C]
Noctua NF-P14S [NF-P14S-REDUX-1500P]
Corsair Air AF140 Quiet Edition [CO-9050009-WW]

or maybe put 2 x 120mm to top, same as front? or 1 x 140mm?

Thanks

Actually you don't want balance, having a positive pressure on the inside of your case will help with cooling as well as keepign dust out. I have 1 200m front fan and 1 140mm rear fan, and thats it.

But if you do want fans any of the top brands are good, Noctua and Corsair are good and Phanteks offers some very nice fans for a little cheaper then most. The one thing to keep in miind is that there are two different kinds of fans, Static Pressure and High Airflow. Static pressure moves air at high pressure and are useful when the fan will be in front of an obstruction, such as a CPU cooler or HDD cage. High Airflow are almost always used for case fans.

Great. Thank you for this information, cuz never thought about it.
Will put one "High Airflow" to top, above CPU cage to flow hot air outside of the case.
2 front to get in, 1 rear + 1 top to get out. Think it will be enough for beginning.
