Fan manufacturers seem to broadly have two types of fan: 1) AF - optimized for higher airflow but with lower static pressure, 2) SP - higher static pressure, traded off for lower airflow.
Typically it seems like the the AF fans are positioned as case fans, and the SP fans for heatsinks/radiators.
However, reading around it seemed like people fancy the SP fans as intakes, especially when pulling through a front dust filter or restrictive front panel (higher pressure more useful in this scenario?).
What experience/opinions do y'all have?
