[Carnach]

Hey guys, i recently added my new CPU cooler, but my case seems a bit crowded now..

Any tips on airflow or if i should remove the top fans?

You could shut off front one on top of the case, might even get better flow thru CPU cooler because it's taking some air from it.

As CountMike said take off the extra exhaust fan that is not above the CPU cooler. It just takes out the cold air brought in by the intakes before the air can even reach the CPU cooler.

Everything else looks good.

Ok, i did just that, temps went a few degrees down and the case doesn't look so crowded anymore.

Thanks a lot for the fast responses both of you!

You have the means to answer your own question.
I would consider removing the top two fans and see how you do.

As a side benefit, if your two front intakes are filtered, your parts will stay cleaner.
The top exhausts will tend to draw in unfiltered air from adjacent openings.
