Bitfenix Prodigy M Airflow

[kale007]

I am looking tips for the best airflow with that case. Currently have the air going from top to bottom, but I've heard that it's a bad idea. I have a Asus gtx 780 dc2, i7 4770k with stock cooling(woohoo) and i have 2 120mm and 1 large 200mm. Suggestions?

I would just say to pull it in from the front and exhaust out the top/back, this is the natural flow for heat.

Although, to be honest, it will probably not make too much of a noticeable difference, as long as you are not overclocking.

But you can't pull it in from the front because the psu sits in the way.
Should i just use my 2 120mms for exhaust and buy later a 140mm AF fan and then change the config a bit afterwards?

My bad, didn't realize the M was a different design! Pulling from the top and exhausting the back should be fine in a case that size, but you won't get much overclocking headroom unless you watercool.

For watercooling, is a 120mm cooler good or will a air cooler beat ex. Scythe Ashura Shadow(Really good price/performance) with 2 fans beat example H60?
