    It’s funny how those fans are a decent percentage of the whole build. They’ll last a life time of builds though so well worth it imo.

      Those are Noctua fans so a decent percentage of the price tag too lol. I count 22 that’s like $600+ in just fans.

      If I’m remembering the reviews of this case correctly it doesn’t even have good airflow for all those fans.

        That makes sense to me… You really only want one path for the air flow. E g. In through the front, over the components, and out the back.

        Most of the fans in this setup are just fighting against each other.

          Having front / bottom intake and rear / top exhaust is also fine if you have a top mounted radiator.

          Side in like this case has is also fine as long both front and side have the fans mounted the same way.
