What type of 120mm fans should I use for the front and rear?
The case I'm about to purchase is the Corsair 230 t. I'm just wondering what type of fan I should use for the front and rear end of the case. Pressure Optimized or Air Flow? I'm leaning towards Static Pressure fans, but others have pointed me to AF. I know very little about the case itself or how thick the mesh is on the front. Hope you guys can help, thanks!

Thanks! I might be a little too picky here, but do you happen to know any quality 120mm fans that come with Green LEDs?

I like the quiet AF's.


That makes sense, but in terms of overall cooling, wouldn't the SPs do the job better? Perhaps I'm wrong.

Wouldn't the Corsair SP 120s make more sense considering there's a drive cage in front of the front fans? Mind my ignorance, I know nothing about that case as well.
