just wondering if anyone has tried drilling holes on the plastic by the side cover panel. to maybe fit a 120x25 fan or some 80' or 70's.i just replaced my rear exhaust with an ultra kaze lol! i cant seem to get enough of fans. i want more. im still in the process of replacing the top exhaust with 3 and side with 4 for intake.

i still got 2 San Aces to use! one will be on my CPU cooler when i get my megahalem. was trying to figure out how to add another fan right by the HD cage so it blows air to the gpu's.

Where exactly are your talking about?

If it's the plastic window, then yes you can. Just make sure you have a sharp drill bit, apply a piece of masking tape or painters tape to where u want to drill (helps so it wont crack), and go slowly and you should be fine (I could be wrong though).

Ordering mine on Monday. I can't wait. My mom thinks I'm insane for buying a $150 case, people just don't understand... XD

I've been looking at pics and it looks really awesome with the insides painted black, I think I'm gonna have to do it as well. Silver insides just look bad IMO. I'll most likely replace the front LED as well, and I'll definitely pop in some red cold cathodes. I'll make sure I have pics.

Default HAF 933 Air Pressure

Question people.

on another thread we were discussing case air pressure. So it got me thinking about our HAF'S. Hearing that negative pressure is really good for a system, apparently this could create some dust problems (though I'm always cleaning stuff around, major case of OCD'). I wonder if there were any negative pressure within the HAF design.

Here are the stock HAF fan specs.
Front: 230 x 30 mm red LED fan x 1, 700 RPM, 110 CFM, 19 dBA
Side: 230 x 30 mm standard fan x 1, 700 RPM, 110 CFM, 19 dBA (support 120 x 25 fan x 4)
Top: 230 x 30 mm standard fan x 1, 700 RPM, 110 CFM, 19 dBA (support 120 mm fan x 3 or 120 mm x 1 + 230 x 30 mm x 1)
Rear: 140 x 25 mm standard fan x 1, 1200 RPM, 60.9 CFM 17 dBA (support 120 mm fan x 1)

CFM Values

Intake = 110 x 2 = 240CFM
Exhaust = 110 + 60.9 = 170.9CFM

Given those specs, i was told on another thread that the case was in fact creating positive pressure.
I was also suggested to switch the side fan to an exhaust to create negative pressure.

For those wondering what all this fuss about is negative and positive air is all about...

Some say positive air creates turbulence, thus creating hot spots.
Which is why some people decide to have more exhaust than intake on their case, hence the term "negative pressure."

Has anyone tried adjusting the HAF to create more negative pressure? If so any significant results?
I've been thinking about switching my side fan to exhaust to see what happens.
