Case Airflow help


this is a picture of the airflow in my case, do you think it is good/ effective??

The back 120mm fan cools my water cooling but the pipes feel warm?

Your case looks similiar to my old zorro case. You have 2x80mm fans as intake on the front, is it not possible to mod a single 120 in there as intake. I would get rid of that 80mm on the side as it will be detrimental to the smooth air flow from intake front to exhaust back and rear you have.

What make/model are the 120's?

You can buy Akasa amber series fans for 10bucks which run at 1400rpm kicking out 44.8cfm @ only 18dba. Thats quite a lot of cooling for a minimalistic noise level.

The 120mm on top is akasa bought off of ebuyer, and the other 1 came with my thermaltake bigwater cooling kit.

i could put a 120mm in the front but i dont have a dremel drill to do it with
