ok lads the planned pc will be a 2600k 4600mhz with a GTX 580 and about 1 SSD no SLI so hopefully nothing 1 apache as an extraction cannot handle but id rather have opinions by people who have tried positive pressure.

i smoke near my pc so i really want it spotless this time as my last one was pretty dusty.im sorting out custom filters from dmcflex with black mesh so you cannot see them on all intakes.the problem is that with filtered intakes and none on extractions the cmf gets unbalanced and smoke and dust will come in the side panels and bits that are not sealed so i thought about having the top 200mm as an intake rather than extraction.

picture using my case HAF 912 plus version.i hope the paint skills are not that bad but this will give me 3 intakes but i numbered it to 4 to include the PSU area which is sealed off and has no effect on the case airflow.

do you think temps will be fine? will i suffer much with just one apache taking out hot air? i am planning to get a CPU cooler than can mount sideways to help push air into that 120mm rear fan.
