Hello,
This is my first post on tom's hardware! Anyways, I'm currently building a system using the case HAF 912. It has the following Fan Options
Front: 2x120mm or 200mm
Top:2x120mm or 200mm
Side:120mm or 140mm
Rear: 120mm
Well, currently I have 5 different fans. I have 2x 120mm that came with the system that run at around 1200rpm at max speed, I've bought 2x 120mm fans that run at 2000rpm at max, and I have 1x 140mm at 1000rpm.
The way I want to set up my fans would be like this....
2x120mm at 1200rpm (input) on front.
2x120mm at 2000rpm (output) on top.
1x140mm at 1000rpm (input) on side.
I feel like with this set up, there's a good chance I can achieve either neutral or positive pressure in the system, but I'm still a bit worried. I'm really curious if it would be worth getting one more 120mm fan and having this set up.
1x120mm at 1200 rpm and 1x120mm at 2000rpm (input) on front
1x120mm at 1200 rpm and 1x120mm at 2000rpm (output) on top
1x140mm at 1000rpm (input) on side.
1x120mm at 2000rpm (output) on rear.
So, I'm curious on whether the second build would make a big improvement on the airflow of the system and if not, whether the 5 fans I'm using are in the best position possible!
