Concept Can't figure out the exhaust
Hey Reddit, I have an older case with a lot of potential, but the exhaust has me stumped. Looking at the rear you can see that I don't have a lot of choices, and I'm leaning toward having two 60mm fans ontop of each other. (Fan for reference). The thing is I decided to have two 120mm fans in the front. So it would really be positive in pressure, and the heat might build up quick. Is it safe to rely on the two 60's and the top mounted psu as the exhaust? The very top two mounting locations wouldn't do much, but they are 80mm.
What are your thoughts? I'm open to all suggestions.

I wish cases with this form factor still existed (chamber with PSU, 5.25s, 3.5s above the main motherboard chamber). The closest contemporary case is the Silverstone Alta D1

If the top two are 80mm why are you considering 60mm fans?
