What do you believe is wrong with the default?

I didn't know there was a default fan configuration with that chassis, since it doesn't come with any fans...

@Birchy789
Side intake, top exhaust, and you're done.
It's the simplest and the most productive set up in there.

They are asking about CPU fan curves. Those are motherboard rather than case centric, so the case is only relevant if there is insufficient airflow.

What I meant was the pc fans where should I place them?

I gotta buy the fans separate I just don’t know where is best to place them

Well, if you can get your hands on these, you wouldn't have to buy separately.

I said side intake, top exhaust... what's wrong?

Would I need a commander pro for these fans to connect to?

@Birchy789
No, as they provide a controller to you already.

Maybe I make big mistake but doesn't d15 blow front to back? If so dont forget back fan location for 120mm. Case vents well so intake side exhaust top. If I was not water cool this is what I would have done.

I go little bit rgb crazy so I have commander pro forgive me. Never have the rgb before, never water cool before so this was fun build. Will say none of it intuitives. Interesting, a little frustrating but still fun.
