This will just be a quick little write-up since there are only two pictures, but I took them so I figure I should post them.

In the original post I talked about replacing the 60cfm fan that comes with the A2400 door from Thermaltake with a more powerful, 100cfm fan. Well, I finally replaced it with the same fan from Performance PCs. I decided not to try to attach the bezel that came along with it for fear of having a second case door with cracks everywhere...

Here is the door with the original fan and the new Power Works fan next to it:

The two fans are the same thickness so the original mounting setup worked just fine.

The A2400 door looks pretty much the same with the fan installed, except that you have the option of having the wiring sleeved for you by Performance PCs so it looks a bit nicer.


The new fan blows almost twice as much air but it is still under 20dBA so I can't hear it over any of my case fans, even when they are on low (undervolted to 7V). For $25 it was a bit steep but no need to attach it to a fan controller to control the noise when I am not gaming or overclocking so it's not all bad. Definitely something I am happy I bought! I don't think motherboard temperatures changed much, but I am willing to bet the GPU and RAM are happier since they each have a better supply of air. Well, as happy as inanimate objects can be, anyway...

Comments, suggestions, critique, etc. are all welcome!
