    Fan, side or back?

    I have a fan 12cm Foxconn installed on the back of the case and that brings me to have good temperature of the hardware inside. I wanted to ask if, since the fans of processor and video card give both sides the case, installing the said fan on the side of the case instead of on the back, I could get an even better ventilation?

    If the system is remaining cool at back fan then it is a good thing. But then what makes the system hot that you want to shift that fan to side panel? Buy a council for another side panel, so you'll have a recycling more or less balanced.

    Ok thanks. But I am not sure if the fan at side panel will throw out. How do I know? Even if it does, what will be the significant difference.

    In the fan's top indicated with an arrow where the air goes, and the side where the protective roofs on its end.
