1Tb Seagate HDD 64 mb cache, sata 3 - £31

Didn't have to order fans as plenty came with the case that I can re-configure/adjust

Don't think I forgot anything from looking at my notes and my old rig spec-sheet

I'll try too, (enjoy it that is) it's the cable management I'll be pulling my hair out with.

Side note here: fan setup is a little trick giving the fact the radiator for the cpu will be mounted at the top pulling air in through the radiator and into the case.

this means I'll have that as intake + 1 140mm front intake, 3 side intake fans (200mm + 2 120mm's) but only one rear exhaust fan 120mm...

wondering if anyone here had any idea if this will work or will simply create too much negative pressure?

the two 120mm side intake fans are near the lower bottom right of the case blowing air into the hard drives and if I rotated them they would simply draw the air from the front fan intake back out again.

the 200mm side fan blows air over the GPU which I'm thinking is much needed.

thoughts on this one? saves another thread spam..

You should have the 2 rad fans as exhaust and disconect the rear, but you could try the rear fan as an intake see what temps you get.
