Hi guys,
I can put 3 fans at the top of my case. I will call them: rear, mid, and front fans. I currently have the rear and mid installed as outtake fans.
I am planning to install the front fan, which is the fan that is closest to the front of the case. This fan has no heat generating components below it. It is also right next to the front intake fan. As such, if I set this fan as an outtake fan, wouldn't that fan be sucking the fresh air from the front intake fan, and immediately push it out of the case?
As such, I am planning to have this top fan as an intake fan instead. However, people tend to not use top fan as intake fan. So I was wondering whether this is okay to do?
Further, the remaining 2 top fans are outtake fan. In other words, I have three fans in a row. Two of which are blowing air out while one of which is blowing air in. Would this be a problem? For example, would the intake and outtake fan interfere with each other since they are blowing air towards two different directions?
Thanks a lot.
P.S. here's a video of my build. It might be easier for me to explain with the visual:
