Dear fellow SFF builders,
My ncase is yet to arrive but i'm planning on the following:
I plan to replace the bundled Kraken X53 fans with the NF-A12x25 fans and then side mount the radiator.
The thinner NF-A12x15 I plan to put at the bottom of the NCASE blowing upwards into the GPU. I'm considering the new 3080 nVidia GPU (if it fits!). I also wanted to add a 5th fan (not listed above - probably a 90mm fan looking at other builds) set to exhaust above the GPU at the rear of the case.
My question is how to install these 5 fans and be able to control them through the BIOS or other software?
I note that there are only 3 fan headers at the top of the board. One labelled AIO - where I will plug the Kraken in, leaving me only one cpu fan header and one chassis fan header. Is the answer 2 fan splitters? What then about the 5th rear exhaust fan.
Many many thanks for taking the time to read this and for any help you can provide.
Nik
