Case: NXZT 500i
Cooler: Kraken x62
2x Fans: Corsair Air Series SP 140mm
CPU- i7-8600
GPU - 1070ti or 1080 or rtx 2080
Im very new to building and airflow and coolers and all this stuff in general so I wanted to run this by those more experienced
I had two ideas. One was to mount the radiator to the front of the case positioning the fans behind the radiator to blow inward to the case, taking air from the front, and set up the fan on the back and the fan on the top to blow out of the case as exhaust. I think I can even mount two fans on the ceiling to blow out. So potentially 3 exhaust fans with just the 2 140mm radiator fans on the front blowing in. I wasnt sure since they are blowing into the radiator if that actually counts as intake for the case.
Another idea I had was going down to the kraken x52 (2*120mm fans instead of 2*140mm) and mount it on the ceiling with the air blowing into the radiator and out of the case, and then have the 1 rear fan as an exhaust and put 2 140mm fans on the front as intake.
