So later this year I will be upgrading to the Zen 2, I will be using the successor to the MSI B450 (maybe it's B550?) Pro Carbon AC and the successor to the Ryzen 5 2600X. Besides these upgrades, my system components will be the same as they are now. I also have a Sound Blaster ZxR which is not listed in my system specs.
Anyways, the configuration will be in my current Define R6 Blackout (non-TG) case. I will have two Aerocool DS 140mm fans in the front of the case for intake, one Aerocol DS 140mm fan in the rear for exhaust, and for my CPU cooler I will be using a NZXT Kraken X62 Rev 2 at the top. It is important to note that I will be running this cooler in performance mode which will not only slightly beat my Thermalright Le Grand Macho RT in thermals, but it will only produce a sound level of 26 dB while running at 800 RPM (this sound level is based on an overclocked load on an i7-6700k so it may be slightly off).
Based on the above setup would this perform nicely for airflow and cooling? I also want to make sure that the fans are configured to at the correct RPMs to limit any access noise of possible.
