Hi, I just upgraded my build and got a new case. I got a meshify c and I planned on putting my h100i rad at the top of the case exhausting air like I done in my last case and putting 2 140mm fans on front. The rgb Pro ram on my tomahawk max mobo stopped the rad fitting in so I've currently got the radiator on the front of the case as an intake, 2 140mm at the top as exhausts and the normal back exhaust. Is there any other arrange of fans that would be better? I feel there is a lot more exhaust that intake, does that matter?

Thanks
 
I think the top two fans should be more than enough. Heat rises, so the top fans alone are more than adequate, in fact you could even run a single 140 fan at the top (right at the back) and still probably see no real rise in temps.
 
I think you are probably good with what you have. If you want to go further, some cases will let you put fans on the bottom, so you could put an additional intake fan pulling air up from under the case.

Its pretty much unnecessary though :)
