Mr budget here

Ok so i bought a new case again that has some extra room for 120mm fans, but it only comes with 1x 120 fan at back for exhaust.

I was looking around for a 120mm fan for the front , i see many fans but i dont see ones designed for intake, infact i dont see anything related to intake or exhaust, i guess there mostly for rear, side or does case fans work both ways?? I would think not, but seeing lack of info anywhere on web that such fans are made for intake and exhaust


I may have just asked a real stupid question there, but anyhows, maybe someone would like to put this noob straight and maybe point me to some good fans for cooling a case.

The case i bought was a coolmaster

Cooler Master Elite 335 ATX

Any ideas


Any fans from this link that i could use?

Uh, a fan blows one way and the holes are all the way through it, so you can mount it both ways..

Yep, just experiment with direction when you get it, sometimes the larger ones have such low RPMs its difficult to figure out which way they're blowing.

The air will blow out the side that has the support ribs on it.
