So I decided to install an old working case fan I had lying around into my computer. I did some research and found that rear fans are meant to blow out, front fans blow in, and side fans it depends. Here is my case.
The fan I installed was in the lower side vent. I have it pointing inwards right now, but I'm not sure if its supposed to be pointing outwards or not. It blows air in right below my video card. (the video card in question is a 570 twin frozr II, which doesn't really aim it's exhaust in any particular direction) Should that vent be for video card exhaust?
I also have an upper side vent, and two rear vents, all of which are 80mm. I have only one motherboard case fan output however. Would it be at all possible to fill four of these with only one source of power coming from the motherboard? Or would it be better to just install one rear vent, using a 2 way splitter?
