Best air cooling for NZXT S340

beany_bot · 8 Jan 2016 at 23:12

Hi, I am soon getting a new case (afore mentioned) and I am looking for suggestions for the best (pure air) cooling setup.

I've got two ideas in mind straight away. The first is probably the most typical but I am slightly concerned with the GPU hot air being dragged over the CPU.

The second is a design that I am mostly guessing with as I know its not as popular.

But would be great to hear from those that own this case and use it with air cooling only (no rads)

Best thing to do is just have a play around. Case fans and airflow never make much more than a few degrees difference, and vary massively from system to system.

Thats true. Can I just change the posy and negy wires on the fan connector to make it spin in reverse rather than having to unscrew and rescrew it every time?

Gonna take a stab in the dark and say that's probably not the best idea.

If I'm testing fans I'll just use 1/2 screws very loosely while I test, so doesn't take too long to move them around.
