Fan cooling question

[madmonk888]

hey i have a question about the air flow in a case.. since im not quite sure how its supposed to work here it is
how are the fans supposed to be blowing air out?
front of case blowing air in, back of case fans blowing air out, and side case fans blowing air out? or in?
so basically, what would i have to do to have a perfect flow of air in there?

thats a pretty good article, however it mentions nothing of a side panel fan on the case. i have 2 already i blowing air in from the front, one blowing air out from the back .. + 2 in powersupply... but what about the side panel fan.. in or out?

thnx for future input

so, no one knows if side panel fan should be blowing inward towards cpu or outward into room ?

i would of put the side pannel one blowing air into the case, maybe get anouther fan for the back for exhaust.

I have two fans on the side that sit above the gpu and cpu, they blow air in, and then a blower fan on the top of the case to blow air out. Otherwise your fans are good where they are. The ones in the front for intake and the rear ones for exaust.
