I installed the stock 140mm case fan outside of case then installed the H70+ 1 of its 120mm fans inside case. Used the 2nd 120mm from the H70 to go in the Gpu tunnel.
230mm Front,200mm side,200mm top,120mm Gpu tunnel,120mm&140mm on H70.
I'm running my "New Build" ideas past the forum to see what people think, I have not built in a long time so kinda "out of the loop" on newer parts.
I will also be putting the full specs of the build in ..Hardware.. so I can get some input on the whole thing! (which i could use) Thank for replying .....jeep
