Standard 120's do fit though. Even 140's if you want.
I have 7 of these in my case now. (4 on rad.) and they are great fans. Cheap, moves a bunch of air, and all in all not overly loud.

Just happened upon this thread.

Here is my modded CM690. It's painted 2008 GM Atomic Orange Pearl on the Exterior and the Interior is painted a matte black.

LOL @ how you put the Corsair case badge on the PSU, nice.

very nice looking paint job too, i would have gone for a lighter orange (like the orange on the psu) personally, but nonetheless, it looks good.

I bought the PSU from a friend of mine and he had stuck the sticker on there.

Thanks for the comments about the paint job. Not bad for a spray bomb.

Case looks good. Where's the cable management tho. it's so easy witht he CM690. check out mine on the first page, thats cable management.

oh and hellraiser. Not sure about that. weird. I do have two 120mm top exhaust fans. so those might help me. but when I removed my side panel fans I got a good 4-5C drop in temps. sorry about that. lol, put one of those side panel ones on top and see if that helps. did for me, and normal 120's and 140's both fit the top.

So ur brother has the K850i huh. not fair. my only concern before I get it, is the touch sensitive area on screen for the top left and right bottons. not sure if I like that. does his work good?

balistx - thats a nice lookin case.. i wanna paint mine too

xguntherc - ill try out putting them at the top.. i tried b4 and it wouldnt fit.. the top wouldnt go on.. did u put then inside at the top? or at the top outside of the case under the top piece? i do like the phone tho.. picture quality from 3.2 and 5.0 megapixel doesnt look that much better.. overall use.. umm the touch part is kinda cool.. works well.. phones a lil thicker than mine.. id still go for mine.. cuz it was like $125 cheaper and the fact that his camera aint that much better go figure..

I copied Slngsht. and i was trying to make sure the red didn't "over power" the case. Now if i kept my MSI K9N2 CF-F mobo, then there would of been too much red between my 4870, and the case parts. even thought of a PC p&c 750 crossfire edition, but that would be way too much red!
