[SOLVED] Case Airflow

[rinrin_]

Hello, im thinking of installing 2 80mm exhaust fans (rear and top 2200rpm) and one 120mm intake (1800). How would that work? Right now i only have stock rear 80mm fan with 800rpm and my case can get really hot. Also im aiming for slighty negative pressure with the pre-mentioned setup if that makes any sense.

do you want fan recommendations?

that also, but will 2 80mm exhaust and 1 120mm intake work?

What model pc case do you have?
80mm fans are not very efficient and rather loud.

Specs of your case do not list support for top fan placement.
Install 2x 120mm fans in front (intake) and 1x 80mm (or better 90mm) fan in rear(exhaust).

Aim for positive pressure. That will keep dust out.

Would instaling 2 intake fans make any sense? Since the front panel cant be removed completly (power switch etc.) and i it has only small hole at the bottom.

Hard to tell.

Is front panel made of plastic?
May be you can mod it, make a hole in front panel and put mesh fan filter there.

Do you need front and back suggestions i have a good front intake fan for you https://www.newegg.com/corsair-co-9...AP3JBG63622-_-1&Description=corsair+af120+pro these are good and quiet fans (for me at least)

Hot knife.
Keep in mind - fumes from melting plastic are toxic. If you decide to do it, have a good ventilation.
