I have a Phanteks Enthoo Pro that can accommodate 8 fans. I came with two 120mm intake fans in the front and one 140mm fan for outtake in the back. I bought four extra fans but they dont fit properly for the screw holes so I plan to mount them with tightly wrapped zip ties. Would an intake fan on the bottom and 2-3 exhaust fans on too be best? Or would an intake fan on the bottom, 2 exhaust fans on top front and middle and one intake fan on the top back, above the GPU make sense? I'm not sure what would be "optimal". Im also thinking of removing the HDD metal barrier thing to improve airflow.
My GPU temps have maxed at 73C and CPU at 63C or so, so I'm not that worried but I figured I would maximize airflow since I have options and bought the extra fans.
Secondly, does it make sense to add some fans outside of the case? For example, intake fans outside the case/filter as opposed the inside the case as normal?
Edit: removed the PSU shroud from the case.
Thank you.
