Need suggestions for case fans

[MattC231]

My case is the graphite 730t full tower. I got a nzxt kraken x62 aio for cpu and plan to mount it on the front of my case. I'm thinking about sandwiching the radiator between the 2 fans included on the case front and the included nzxt fans. Is this a good idea? 'Cause the fans in the front are for airflow and I read that static pressure fans are better for radiators. The front can fit 2 120mm or 2 140mm. As that is the only radiator I'm using, I believe that I should use air flow fans for the rest of the mounting positions in my case. the top can fit 3 120 mm or 2 140mm, rear 1 120mm or 1 140mm, and bottom 1 120mm. Should I change some or all of the fans? Also red LED is preferable to keep with the aesthetics of my build since most of my components are in red and/or have red LED. Also corsair brand so I can use corsair link, but if there are better than corsair, I'll listen.

-Thanks

Out of all the builds that I have made I have had the best luck with Thermaltake Riing fans on both radiators and for airflow and they look nice.

Go with Corsair ML series fans since those have excellent airflow with solid static pressure and huge RPM range. With Corsair ML series fans, you don't need any other fans,

In my Skylake build (full specs with pics in my sig), i also have 6x Corsair ML series fans in use, all with red LEDs and i'm pleased with the performance of my mag-lev fans.

i'll think about getting those...at a later time.....they are pretty expensive since I want to get 4 120 mm and 3 140 mm fans.........when I save up enough, I'll get those, but for now, what do you say about the corsair air sp140, corsair air af140, and the corsair air af120? nice build as well, those ml fans look nice

nice but a bit pricey according to the number I want to get

The Corsair ML series premium price tag is justified by the mag-lev bearing and ability to perform excellent as a airflow fan and as as rad fan. Though, for time being, go with Corsair SP series fans since Corsair AF series fans have poor performance, even for airflow fan.
