Fan setup on a Cooler Master Haf X

[trippy]

I currently have the front 230mm fan and side 200mm fan as an intake, and 1 top 200mm fan as an exhaust. I also have a Corsair H60 installed which exhausts air out the back. I'm thinking of adding 1 more 200mm fan to the top as an exhaust. Would this be a good setup?

I'm also slightly confused about the size of the front fan, on some websites it is described as a 200mm fan, but on the official Cooler Master site its shown as 230mm. The only thing is that Cooler Master don't sell any 230mm fans?

Thanks for an help.

What measurement do you get when you measure it ? 1" = 25.4 mm

If you add another exhaust, I'd add another intake with it, for no other reason to insure that you don't suck any air in thru the grilles.

Looks like I measure it as 200mm, just doesn't make sense why its listed as 230mm officially. Where could I add the intake?

I was answering your "where do I put the extra intake fan question", not addressing fan size.


put it in the spot highlighted in bold

I'm sure you can mount a 140mm fan in the 5.25" drive bays.
