Hello! I have just recieved all of my parts for my new build! I do have a question about cooling on this rig and if it will be an issue? Here is what I have purchased!

The casr that I got has an option for 4 different 120mm fans. 1 in the rear, two on the side, and one in the front. The one in the front is the issue. A 120mm wil not fit nor will any 25mm width fan. I was thinking about puting in a 80mm thin fan with a filter, but I dont think it will breath well. What are my options? Is it okay not to have a fan up front? and have only esaust fans?

Looking at the case details it says:

Room for 4 fans with 1 installed and then it says:

Preinstalled 120mm front fan

1 x 120mm rear fan

Obviously they are incorrect. So, if yours has a rear fan then it should take a 120mm in front but looking at the pictures I don't see anyplace for a front fan. If the pictures are just poor and there is a grill then the front face must pop off so you could add a 120mm.

As for how many fans remember that your psu will pull air from the case and send it out so don't compete with that. Don;t use a fan near the cpu cooler that pulls away or interfer's their either. In general I like a fan at the front of the case, one at the read + the psu. Maybe one on top if the air flow isn't good enough without one.
