So I want to make the best setup with my case and cool my components as much as possible, though I'm not sure how to make the best airflow. My case is a Corsair Carbide 100R Silent Edition, and I have the following setup so far:

  • 1 fan in the front of the case blowing air into the case
  • 1 fan on the side of the case, blowing air right on top of the gpu
  • 1 at the back, taking air into the case
  • 1 at the top of the case, sending air out of the case
  • 2 fans for my Noctua Nh-D15 cpu cooler, sending air the same way as the fan at the back

What is the best setup with these fans and the cpu cooler?

Thumb rule is front side and bottom intake top and rear exhaust
