I know this may seem like a stupid question, but I can't seem to find the answer to this one. The reason I ask is because I'm trying to decide whether to add a side intake fan to the build I'm working on.

It sucks in air from the top of the HSF to blow air on the CPU. Have your side intake blow inward.

I found in my case that a side intake fan doesn't do too much. Just that side intake tunnel thing is good enough... might save you some dB on noise...
