There isn't room above the rad for a fan, I'm using the 140mm fan the case came with.

But im looking to get a new fan can anyone recommend a high quality quite 140?

Yes, I'd highly recommend these Cougar 140mm units

I have a pair of the orange 120mm PWM units in my FT03B (on my H80's rad) and they are dead silent. Add to that they look FANTASTIC.

Edit - pics of the orange blades in action

So my GTX 670 ended up having some issues with the HDMI port so i had to RMA it. To my horror, and surprise, they sent me the FTW 2 as a replacement. The difference here is the FTW card is on the 680 PCB so i was worried it wouldnt fit in my case.
Well it turns out it did...barley.

Phew! Glad to hear it fit okay smile.gif

This looks so much better than the funny splitter type adapter with the 4-pin molex.

It also takes up a lot more room if space is a concern.

If space is a concern, get rid of the optical tray altogether biggrin.gif
