I've been using 3 Corsair AF-140s in my Arc Midi R2 for a while, all in the stock fan positions (front in-take, top/rear exhaust), but the front fan has always annoyed me a little. I'm not entirely sure if the fan has motor whirring, or if it's vibrating against the front panel of the case; could be a bit of both to be honest. In any case, I'd like to:
1) Replace the front in-take fan with something that doesn't cause the same problem (any suggestions on replacement would be appreciated).
2) Move the top exhaust to the bottom in-take slot, mainly to try the positive pressure thing, which of course isn't possible with current fan positions. I've heard about the honeycomb floor in the bottom of the case making the air whooshing through make whining noises; anyone with similar experiences?
I'll be plugging all fans into the built-in fan controller of the case!
My temps after a nice long session of BF4 are ~62-64 CPU and 57-60 GPU, in case that information is needed.
Thanks in advance for suggestions!
