Case/Fan Help

[rifle]

I'm going to buy this case:

I'm also gonna buy two 120mm fans.

I'm gonna place one at the bottom front as the Intake fan and one by the PSU as the Exuast fan. What should the side fan be I was thinking Intake but I'm not to sure.

also for my CPU cooler I'm gonna use a Thermaltake TR2-R1 /
Just in case someone asked I put it up there.

Thanks alot

Anyone?

Well to me, I would think that you should use an exhaust fan on the side because it will be pulling all the heat from the CPU, Video Card, etc. Anybody have another opinion?

I'd say intake so the cpu fan/heatsink can get circulated with fresh cool air.

so far 50/50 lol

any others?

Ha. well, as far as I know, most cases that come with side fans have them setup as intake. Especially the ones the have the vent right over the cpu.

Well, you could always try it both ways and see.

But I'd say try it as an intake first, then try it as an exhaust if you're not satisfied.
