Default Antec P180 Mini + 2 Enermax 120mm Magas?

  • What do you guys think?
  • Anyone here use the 120mm Magma fans?
  • Does anyone have a suggestion for other fans to use?
  • Other methods to reduce noise with this case?

Two ENERMAX MAGMA UC-MA12 120mm Case Fans inside an Antec Mini P180 Black Steel MicroATX Mini Tower.

You don't need a magma on the front. Just get a silent s-flex or something similar. With the grill, filter, and mini-door in front of a higher cfm fan, it gets noisy in that location. As far as the back goes, it really won't help either as alot of your airflow is out the top. I have an enermax on my cpu cooler but did try them in other locations and my temps weren't helped at all really and they were noisier.
