Well i was just wondering what set up your fans are in.

intake
120mm fan in the front
80mm fan on the side panel

exaust
2 80mm fans

psu
2 80mm fans are in it

i have my side panel fan and one of my exaust fans on a fan controller
 
I have 2 120mm fans in and 3 more 80mm fans in. None out.

(try not to have fans mounted in the side(it messes up the airflow)

so are you going for a whirl wind affect?? usually people say that you should always have exhaust along with intake.

You're absolutely correct. Personally, i think the ratio of intake:exhaust should be minimum 1:1 (i.e 120mm intake + 120mm exhaust).

I've got a 120mm exhaust on the back, with an 80mm intake on the side panel, and a 120mm (ThermalTake Blue Orb) CPU fan. Works fine for me :D

i think i went a little overboard with my fans lol

A little heavy on the intake, but other than that, "overboard" only means "wanting a cool comp."

Simple as that. :D
 
lol well i only did the 2 80mm intakes as a case mod because i was bored and they look kinda cool (2 80mm fans to replace 2 drive bays)
 
INTAKE:
1x 80mm side fan
1x 80mm front fan

EXHAUST:
1x 80mm blowhole fan
1x 120mm rear fan

OTHER:
1x 80mm HDD cooler
1x 80mm VGA cooler
