If you scroll down to like the fourth or fifth picture, you can see he has intake fans on the side - http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18560177
What about a 240 rad there? I was going to add a 240 ST30 there in push pull. Had a few reservations though. The fans on the inside of the case would be about 10mm from my Monsta 480, would that cause any kind of issue / interfrence? My goal is silence, and I figure throwing in a small rad there would only help with that, running Helix 120s @ 600 or so RPMs. I have an XT45 480 on the top in addition to the Monsta 480 in the bottom (both PP). Currently, only cooling a 4690k and a single G1 970. I realize it is overkill, but going for silence and a moderate to high OC.
Also, it seems that there are two schools of thought. One is, front / bottom = intake and top / rear = exhaust. There are so many holes in this case that excess intake will find a place to exit the unit. I was planning on only the rear fan 140mm being exhaust, with the radiators and front all being intakes. Really, the only change I see making would be the top rad as exhaust, but from what I have read, sending the coldest air possible over the rads is ideal, although by doing so I will sacrifice slightly higher internal case temps. Thoughts?
Thank you!
