Help me please. I wanna change my case fans. On front i wanna put 2 of
NOCTUA NF-A14-PWM to move air, but what to put on back, to push air out?
sorry for my english
 
What's your aim in doing so? Silence or more airflow? Does that case even support dual 140s in the front
 
Two fans on the front of the case will create a high pressure environment in the case but this can also increase noise and heat. You ideally also want a single exhaust fan on the rear so that you sill have a high pressure environment but also the extra airflow for heat.
 
You should have one on the front and one on the back already (if new)

You have room for another 2 at the top and front if you wish, as well as potential for side and bottom.
140mm or 120mm will be fine for any of these, 140mm for preference (bigger is usually quieter)

I have 2 at the front, 1 back and 1 top. My temps are good.
 
I have Aerocool Sharks, 2 exhausts and one intake. Loud but at 7v they are fine so leaves me the option when playing a demanding game.
 
I put the 2 supplied at the front with 2 Bitfenix somethingorothers (Spectres i think) at the rear and top as exhausts. Maybe I should swap these over ....

Even at 7v its still quiet sat under the desk with the speakers on
 
I've got a Noctua NF-S12 exhausting mine. Whisper quiet even at full rpm (around 1200) and does very nicely.
I also have an H100 with a pair of NF-P12s exhausting out the top, though.
