what would you choose 3x 140mm fans or 2x200mm ?

I can fit 2x200mm fans on the intake of my case

I can also fit 3x140mm fans

What would you choose?

thanks

I have 3 intake fans, 2 exhaust fans ontop of cpu fan, and a 5700 XT, my PSU seems absolutely fine
overclocked too

think ill go for 2 x 200mm ones then

Currently got 3 Arctic 120mm , and they make an odd noise which i hate, the noctuas on the back are silent and another noctua on the CPU , thats also silent

two of these to go on the front

Question

The 200mm Noctua fans are not pressure optimized ?

these fans surely, were built to go on the front, so do i get these or something like these instead which state "pressure optimized" ?

The idea of pressure optimised/high static pressure fans is that they are more suitable for pushing "through" something, like a HSF or radiator. Don't worry about it for a case fan.

nice one

thanks
