x for "x"haust. that's the easiest eay to remember

[kevinhhn]

simple way to remember : back of the fan (exhaust) (air blowing out) , front of the fan (intake) (air blowing in) . The front of the fan should usually have a logo. Also fans mounted on the front of the case should always be intakes, fans mounted on the rear and on top of the case should always be exhaust.

Scott my man, thank you so much for educating me on how to properly put on the fans, god bless

[clonewars]

I love how the thumbnail has the answer. No bullshit, just answeres. Love it.

[hroy]

Thanks man.. that "x" for exhaust helps a lot.

Best video i've found so far on Youtube. No stupid background music, not too technical, and just the right amount of information/details on how to determine airflow direction. Thank you!

[adamfink]

You explained this imba way that my 5 year old would know which way the air flows. Masterfully done. Thank you!

To the point! Grill side blows air at you when facing it... can't believe how long it took me to figure this out.

[patdavbel]

I build my pc.. This is the most simple and yet straight forwad. X for exhaust...amazing

[sittingwonderduck]

Thank you so much for this video. This helped me so much without having to remove the case fans and parts just to test it for a custom built PC that I purchased from a seller. Thank you!

[opst]

Short and easy to understand with explicit explanations and real life examples (like helicopter).
Well done!

[MjollTheLioness-oy]

Thank you. I just bought a pre-built and the fans in the front were set to exhaust. This helped me know the correct way to switch them around.

[akuryo]

You are awesome man... Short videos... to the point... non of that usual waffle on for ten minutes about nothing like most video (unless they're indian... those are short n on point too)... but with you there is the much appreciated added bonus of useful descriptive function. Thanks man.... I reckon I'm going to be watching ALL your vids till I've absorbed them all. Chur and Happy New Year from Alley Kat (New Zealand). :)
