I'm working on my Montech XR case and I've got three standard-flow and three reverse-flow Asiahorse fans, plus an additional three fans for my AIO cooler. I'm trying to figure out the optimal fan setup—what's the best way to arrange these fans for the best airflow?

You could go with three exhaust fans and six intake fans for a heavily intake-focused setup, or aim for a balance with four exhaust and five intake. It really depends on your specific airflow needs!
I’d recommend placing the three reverse-flow fans on the bottom as intakes. You can set the AIO cooler to exhaust at the top. Keep the existing fans in the case unless you want to switch out the AIO fans. For the side intake, it’s good to have reverse-blade fans, and the single rear fan should be standard flow. Just keep in mind if you want everything matching, you may need to buy a couple more reverse and a standard fan from Asiahorse.
Do you know if Asiahorse fans look bad if they're flipped? I messed up and now I'm too far to return them.
