Comment on my proposed fan layout :)

I will have;

2x 120mm Fractal fans front sucking IN

2x 120mm Enermax fans rear (H50 push/pull) IN

1x 140mm Fractal fan bottom sucking IN

2x 120mm Fractal fans top exhausting OUT.

My main idea is to have a rising column of air aiding the natures rising heat.

Case Fractal R2.

Comments very welcome.

That really is a lot of fans.

Are you running an i7 at 4.4ghz on air or something?

Nope, just an OC q6600, Ati 5870 and about 5 H/Ds

I was just thinking about having a moving airflow environment. All the Fractal fans are less than 15db to reduce noise.

Setup is fine, maybe only one on the H50 but its similar to what i used to have.

Id get these fans though, you've got enough fans to have lower airflow, ive got them on my new build and they're really quiet
