NZXT S340 elite

[ZexTerHD]

Ok so im looking to buy the S340 elite hyper beast edition but I was wondering about airflow. Would it be ok for me to have the radiator in the front as intake and the top and back as exhaust. my main question to do with that is will the fans that are pulling in air going through the radiator heat up the system due to the hot air from it.

I run that exact fan setup and it works great. You've got nothing to worry about.

Btw, be careful with the hyper beast edition. If you make it so the glass panel is facing you then you will not even see the hyper beast pattern except for on the front.

(Unless the right side of the pc is visible, then you have nothing to worry about)

It should be fine but there are cases with better airflow. I have an S340 (non-Elite) and I really liked it. Later I bought a Phanteks Eclipse P400, and the airflow (among other things, cable management, hdd sound dampeners, etc.) is much better. I'd recommend going with a Phanteks case instead. Even the P400 ($69.99) would be good, but there are better cases from Phanteks within your price range. You will need to purchase extra fans though.
