Final question falls on the CPU cooling.

Using Intel Xeon E3-1235, 95W TDP, no OC, running 7x24.

I am thinking of CM 212+, 1 or 2 fans.
I would like to know which fan would you suggest, in case my focus is on noise-suppression.
There are just too many fans in the market and I do not have any study in this field.

Or you would suggest me use stock fan instead?

don't use stock fan if you need noise-suppression

I don't really need a very quiet cooler, simply I want to avoid making noticeable sound during mid-night(This computer is at living room though).
Do you think CM 212+ can be quiet, if I install two slower fan on it?

Another question is the air pressure inside the chassis,
I am planning to build up a slightly positive pressure inside the chassis so that some air can be exhausted from the PCI slots holes.

Or instead I should just avoid +pressure?
Negative pressure will end up sucking dust from the PCI slots.

On what reason?
Too heavy, risk bending the MB?

No such need, avoiding extra expense.

those all in one water cooling is not very expensive when compared with high end air cooling

This is one of my worry, actually I am thinking of other solution besides tower heatsink,
How about this?

I know nothing about water cooling at the moment,
is the maintenance cost high and the coolant needed to be replaced quite frequently?

only the cpu needs cooling?

一體式水冷其實唔係你想像中咁貴

隔離台 rex 個套街價賣緊 $6xx

At the moment I am only planning for the CPU, I am not using a discrete display.
