Just curious on some Temps and Fan options. Thanks. I have an intel i3 and it's running @33-35C at idel and my graphics card is a geforce 9800 gtx+ and is running @44-47C. Do you think those temps are pretty good at idle? They obviously go up when i'm gaming, to around 60's C for graphics and 50's C for CPU. I have in the front 2 120mm Fans, on top I have a 140mm fan and on the back I have a 120mm fan. I have the two front fans sucking in and the top and rear fans blowing out. Does everyone agree that's the way I should have them? Also I have room for one more 120mm fan on the side. Should I have that Fan sucking in or blowing out? And idea's would be great. Thanks! | My System Specs |

If you add the side fan, have it blow air into the case. | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop System Manufacturer/Model Number Custom Build OS Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit CPU Intel i7-3930K Motherboard ASUS P9X79 WS Memory Kingston HyperX Genesis 32GB Kit (8x4GB Modules) 1600MHz DDR Graphics Card MSI R7850 Twin Frozr 2GD5/OC Radeon HD 7850 2GB 256-bit GDDR Sound Card On board Realtek HD Monitor(s) Displays HP w2207h Screen Resolution 1680 x 1050 Keyboard Logitech G110 Mouse Logitech M525 (two in use) PSU Corsair HX750w Case Antec Two Hundred v2 Cooling Cooler Master GeminII S524 120mm (fan replaced with a 140mm) Hard Drives Samsun 128GB 840 Pro

The fan on the side blowing in on the GPU yes. You may experiment with the top fan. I have mine blowing in and supply fresh air to the CPU cooler - that has worked out best for me.
Keep a positive pressure in the case. This means more intake cfm than outgoing cfm, and you have to take into account that in intake with a filter will have less cfm than the fan is rated for.
I don't have any exhaust fans, only 2 x 140 and 3 x 120 intake fans with an open fan port on the back where the air is forced out (an an air port on the graphics card). I can get by without a back exhaust because I have the CPU cooler with push/pull fans and the "pull" fan exhausts out the hole in the rear. | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop System Manufacturer/Model Number Home built (GeneO industries)/Model 3 OS Windows 7 64 bit SP1 CPU i5 2500k @ 4.5 GHz, 1.264V 124 GFlop (IBT with AVX) Motherboard ASUS P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3 Memory 16GB (4GBx4) 1600MHz G.skill Ripjaws X 8-8-8-24 Graphics Card MSI GTX 660 Ti PE/OC, 2GB 7160 MHz DDR5 clock, 1228 Mhz Core Sound Card Onboard Realtek HD Monitor(s) Displays NEC Spectraview 2490WUXi-SV Screen Resolution 1920 x 1200 Keyboard HP Wireless Mouse HP wireless PSU Seasonic X-850 (2012 KM3 model) Case Fractal Design "Define R3" Cooling CM TPC 812 push/pull, 3 120mm, 2 TY-140 case fans Hard Drives Samsung 128GB 840 Pro SSD (System), Crucial 128GB M4 SSD, 2x WD Caviar 1TB Black internal (data), 1x WD Blue 6Gb/s 1TB Internal, 1x 2TB eSata WD20EARS Green, 2x 500GB Seagate external USB, 1x 350GB exte Internet Speed 27.8 Mb/s down, 5.6 Mb/s up Other Info USB 3.0 x4 , SATA III x4, eSATA x3, SATA II x4, USB 2.0 x8. 2 Samsung DVD R/W drives.
