Hi guys. I have an aerocool vs3 black case. I can install up to 12 fans inside. At moment i have 1 at the back (exhaust) 2 at the side panel taking the air out and one at the bottom that its the PSU fan. I need some help regarding how to set up the rest of the fans. I live in cyprus and the degrees during summer can rise up to 40C outside and 27-35 in a room! Would it be a good idea to fit 3 fans at the front bringing some air in the case? Note that the SSD is mounted in the front, and that air will go directly on to the SSD. Any opinions?

this is the case btw

Usually you have air coming in the front and exhausts out the back and the top.

40 degrees is some serious heat and that not including CPU and GPU heat.

I would watercool if the ambient was that high.

Personally I would have front as intake, side as intake and the back and top as exhaust.
 
actually there is no fan at the top. but anyway, suppose i am in a room with 30-35 degrees Celsius. If i have 3 fans for intake at front and 2 at side panel, and 1 exhaust then it would generate a lot of heat inside the case. Or am i wrong? I am kinda new to these things thats why i am asking.

Here are the fans for the case. 9 fans total
Rear Cooling: 1 x 120mm (rear, 23 dB(A), 1,200RPM)
- Front Cooling: 2 x 120 mm (optional)
- Bottom Cooling: 1 x 120mm (optional)
- HDD Cooling: 3 x 120 mm (HDD cage optional) (still in front)
- Side Cooling: 2 x 140/120 mm (optional)
