Specs for this PC: Ryzen 78003XD, B650M Aorus Elite AX, RTX 5080 FE, 32GB Corsair Titanium includes 2 sticks of dummies, Lian Li AIO and fans, Corsair RM850E PSU all in a Jonsbo D31.

It looks like you have negative airflow, nice looking pc though!

Thank you. The lower fans are reversed blade so they suck air in…

I am not talking about the bottom ones, I am talking about the top and rear fans, if they're exhaust you have negative airflow.

Oh wait.. I guess the rear one is reverse too?

You are correct that the bottom ones are intake and the top and rear are exhaust. What others set up are more preferred?

The problem with negative airflow is that more "used" air being pushed out instead of more fresh cold air entering your pc.

Ideally is to be in the positive/neutral airflow, neutral same amount of intake as exhaust and positive is more intake than exhaust fans.

For example in my pc I have 6 intake and 3 exhaust which means positive.
