Ok, for my core i7 920, which site should i buy it from, also which 2 fans should i use and how do i know if it is compatible? are all 120mm fans compatible? Which fans should i use besides ultra kraze and which site should i buy all of this from? Ty for your input! Also, what does a fan grill do? does it improve performance? and how do i mount 2 fans on it? is that what a fan grill is for?

you can use zip ties to hold on the second fan if you want instead of purchasing another set of fan holder clips.

You only need the set of clips that come with it, one fan is better than two for the same amount of noise. If you can tolerate two fans, then you can tolerate one stronger fan that pushes more air. For motherboard pressure it's fine, it comes with the backplate. For the type of fan to use, any one with open corners/holes and 120mm will fit. I recommend the 2000rpm Ultra Kaze if you don't like noise (87cfm, 33dba), or the 3000rpm if you don't care (133cfm, 45dba). Even though the cfm/dba ratio might seem worse than some other fans, an overlooked specification is the pressure. Both of these fans provide enough pressure to force the air through the tight fins of the TRUE. Fan grills are to protect your fingers or wires from accidentally hitting the fan which can break it. As long as the wires are tucked away from it there's really no chance that it happens. They're mostly for the exterior of the case where foreign objects might hit the fan (cats/fingers/clothes). I recommend you get the 3000rpm Kaze for the TRUE and maybe a few 1900rom Scythe Slipstreams for the case fans, and then use a fan controller to leave them at whatever noise you find comfortable. That way you always have the exra power available for when you leave it on when you're gone, or for benchmarks. Use fan controllers with at least 30W per channel, such as the Sunbeam Rheobus Extreme (which I use).
Sorry about the brick, lol

If you go for the True Black 120.. i believe it comes with 2 sets of fan clips which will be enough for 2 fans where as i think the original only comes with one.
