[SOLVED] Does it matter which fan i'm using for pulling or pushing air out of the case?

[Andrew 3584]

I currently have a case with 2 case fans attached, 1 front 1 back
(the case has 1 front fan, 1 back fan, 1 bottom case fan and 2 side panel fan slots)

Venturi HP-14 PWM

Would it be more optimal for airflow for the noctua fan to be sucking air in or the fractal fan? or does this not matter at all

The way the case is populated internally will have more to do with air flow than the position of the fans as long as they are working together, i.e. push/pull.

The only way to tell for sure is to try both configurations.

hm ok thanks, I just looked at the fans specifications and both of the fans are high-static pressure fans anyway so i should just pick the noctua to pull air in anyway
