This is my initial post here, just letting you know.
I’m preparing to build my first PC and have some queries about cooling with the H100i v2.
I’ve also purchased Corsair Sp120 quiet edition fans and intend to replace the ones that come with the cooler.
The case I’ll be using is the S340 by NZXT — it’s budget-friendly and has a great design.
I’m unsure whether to stick with the fans included in the cooler or swap them for the ones I’m getting.
Could anyone advise me on what to do, especially since this is my first build?
Feel free to share any tips or specs you think are useful.
Thanks.

Because you're placing the cooler in an S340, you'll need to position the radiator at the front.
To keep positive air pressure, the front fans must move more air than the case fans, ensuring more air enters than exits.
For example, if you have 4 fans at 1000rpm, set the front ones to 400rpm and the case ones to 200rpm.
That makes sense? Just a nice build!
