Got a new case and it came with two exhaust fans with temperature sensors on them.

Whereabouts should these sensors be placed in relation to the case??..

:help:

I would imagine on the bits that are likely to get most hot, but it's really up to you. One on the CPU, one on the PSU?

Use one as an inlet fan, and the other as the exhaust.

The inlet fan should be mounted at the front of the case, normally under the HD enclosure. This fan should blow air into the case.

Mount the exhaust fan at the rear of the case. The space for mounting this is normally just above the AGP slot. This fan should draw ait out of the case.
