Additional front intake fan recco

[Tornesoul]

Hey guys, recently built a new pc, looking to add a front intake fan for positive air pressure.

Currently using Fractal define design R5 with the stock fan 1 infront and 1 behind.

Stock fans: Fractal Design Dynamic GP-14 Black/White Hydraulic Bearing 140mm Case Fan
- they are really quiet, but is it just me or they dont shift much air?


Any recommendations for which to purchase?

Whole load of types / brands out there. I think the front can fit 140mm right?
the stock fan is on the front of the case, top portion. new fan will be on the front, btm portion (infront of hdd cage)

liddat should go for static pressure?

dont mind led, but doubt can see haha

its a good balance of airflow, static pressure and noise.
very versatile especially if you are able to control it via mobo/fan controller.

Yeap, the stock fans don't really move air but they really are quite quiet.

Recommendations would be Corsair AF or Noctua fans nf-s.
