Cpu case fans

[MrLeeby]

Hi, Im probably going to get this case (https://www.overclockers.co.uk/silverstone-redline-rl06-pro-gaming-case-white-silver-sst-rl06ws-pro-ca-43t-sv.html)

It has 3 intake fans and 1 rear fan, with space for 2 140mm at the top

I will probably put my corsair h55 at the back of the case

The only question that I need answering is that, what fans do I buy for the top of the case

I've seen all these airflow, static pressure etc and im not sure which ones I need to be purchasing (new to this, so sorry if this sounds pretty "newbie")

Please link me some fans I could put at the top, if you have any suggestions. Thanks.

A very attractive case.

The key to good cooling is plenty of intake air.
Ideally, I would mount two 140mm front fans as intakes, and leave the H55 at the back of the case with the exhaust going out.
That will give you a positive pressure situation where all of the intake air is filtered so your parts will stay cleaner.
Do not use any more fans.
All the front intakes will exit SOMEWHERE taking your component heat with it.If you use too much exhaust capability, it will tend to draw in unfiltered air from other openings.

I say 140mm fans because they move more air quietly than 120mm fans.
The equivalent would be three 120mm intakes which you could use instead.

What do you need to cool with a H55?
It is not a particularly strong cooler.
Likely, you would do better with a good air cooler.

My canned rant on liquid cooling:
------------------------start of rant-------------------
You buy a liquid cooler to be able to extract an extra multiplier or two out of your OC.
How much do you really need?
I do not much like all in one liquid coolers when a good air cooler like a Noctua or phanteks can do the job just as well.
A liquid cooler will be expensive, noisy, less reliable, and will not cool any better
in a well ventilated case.
Liquid cooling is really air cooling, it just puts the heat exchange in a different place.
The orientation of the radiator will cause a problem.
If you orient it to take in cool air from the outside, you will cool the cpu better, but the hot air then circulates inside the case heating up the graphics card and motherboard.
If you orient it to exhaust(which I think is better) , then your cpu cooling will be less effective because it uses pre heated case air.
And... I have read too many tales of woe when a liquid cooler leaks.
google "H100 leak"
I would support an AIO cooler only in a space restricted case.

Your pc will be quieter, more reliable, and will be cooled equally well with a decent air cooler.
You have158mm available, a cryorig H7 is very good and only 145mm tall.
