Hi guys,
I have a weird unorthodox question about the HAF 922's sidepanel question. For those of you who might not know, the side panel allows you to place either a 200mm case fan or 2x 120mm case fans. Now, due to my current parts, what I have is that the CPU's heatsink fan is blowing air towards the side panel (sitting directly above the CPU), while my GPU has a fan that is acting as an intake and pushing air out into the rear of the case through a plastic tunnel (HIS Radeon, this fan is facing dowards). The GPU is aided in its cooling with the help of my PSU that is blowing upwards in the case.
If you already have a glimpse of how it looks like now, my question is whether it is better to have 1 200mm acting as an exhaust (intake directly counters the effect of the CPU heatsink fan), or should I have 2x 120mm fans where the bottom fan is acting as an intake (blowing to the GPU as well), while the top acts as an exhaust (help push more air away from the cpu to aid in the CPU cooling)?
I know this is weird, googling didn't turn up anything so I thought I'd ask.
Any thoughts?
Cheers.
