Fan setup for Corsair 350d
Hey guys, looking to do a fan set up for my new corsair 350d build.

Please refer to my case fan diagram for the case setup I want to use and fans sizes.

(Please note- the top of the case can use 140mm but since im using a h100i it must be 120mm)

I have 3 goals for my fan set up:
a) quiet
b) cool
c) dust resistance

I would prefer to use 120mm fans, even in the front, the reason being i dont find the extra expense worth the reduced volume noise for the 140mm.

The way it stands now I would like to get:
Top/h100i- corsair sp 120 high performance (out)
Back- corsair af 120 quiet (out)
Front- fans that came with the h100i (in)

Thoughts, recommendations, changes? Im not really an expert on case air flow nor have i used this case before or the corsair fans.

(PS, there is a unselect button that replaced the select as best answer)


The button doesnt appear on my screen maybe they removed it. Thanks for the help.

Thats the exact setup I have in my Carbide 300r.
I personally wouldnt recommend using the stock fans from the h100i in the front, they arent very quiet to use.


Accidentally gave you best answer when I was replying, I always do that accidentally :S

I was thinking the same but I dont really want to increase my spending by that much more. Do you have any cheap recommendations, I prefer microcenter as my retailer.
