I have been debating grabbing 1 or 2. How is the noise in comparison to the stockers?

Edit: Looks like the same questions was asked right before me. Tooooo slow Joe.

The newer stock fans, w/ partially serrated fan blades, weigh in at 28.8db for 92cfm. The NZXT FN200RB are what I would call significantly louder at 37.25 db, but push 166.2 cfm. Assuming the listed specs are accurate, you can see the trade offs. Neither one is silent, so I say pick the stronger of the two and combine with a decent (not the stock/built in one) fan controller.

Added a couple new accessories.





Went back to H60 as exhaust, changed the door fans to intake and added the vantec up front which lowered my temps by another 5 degrees on NB and about 4 degrees on CPU. Idling at 34c CPU and 31c NB.

Really wasn't digging the airflow, so I fixed that. God I hate this camera focusing flash in one spot.

I havent built a computer yet, but im wondering, why does this case have a filter on the bottom of the power supply? Do power supplies intake at the bottom?

Most newer cases mount the power supply at the bottom of the case which results in them pulling air from under the case and exhausting out the rear.

In this case, you can mount the PSU with the fan up or down. And it has a hole below the PSU so it can suck cool air directly in from outside the case, rather than warm air from inside the case.

Definitely possible. More then one way to go about it. A slim 240 rad will fit up top, a 120 rad fits in the back, or a 200mm rad fits up front. And that's just without any mods. With mods, you can do a lot more.

That's my next project after Bulldozer or Sandy Bridge upgrade. Should be an adventure.
