Sorry mate, forgot to say my mesh has all been cut out already! I was thinking more about intake / exhaust setups and how many fans etc thumb.gif

Or i could just buy 2 x 6 pin blue / black cables to fit my new card for about £12

Better late than never, I like the blue too. It goes well with your board.

I just got my 600T and am going to be building it up this weekend. I purchased a H100 as well. Now I don't plan on keeping the stock fans that came with the H100, and was planning on getting two of these for a push setup:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=35-553-002&nm_mc=EMCWL-052012&cm_mmc=EMCWL-052012-_-index-_-Item-_-35-553-002
I've heard some pretty positive things about the cougar fans, and newegg also has a 20% of coupon code for those guys right now. Would you all recommend these fans? Also I have mushkin blackline ram, are these low profile enough to run a push/pull setup with the H100?
2nd question: I plan on removing the front 200mm fan and replacing it with something that doesn't have LEDs. I was going to purchase a bitfenix spectre pro. Will this fit? Is it a good fan? Any other recommendations?

The static pressure of those fans is 1.73 mm H2O, while the stock H100 fans are 7.7 mm H2O at max RPM. So, those fans look nice, and may be great case fans, and may even be quieter than the H100 fans, but they don't perform anywhere near as well on a rad as the H100 fans can.

http://www.cougar-world.de/fileadmin/cougar-world.de/COUGAR%20datasheet/COUGAR_VORTEX_Datenblatt.pdf

If you're just looking for looks, or like the PWM, or prefer the lower noise (17.7dB vs 39 dB), or all of the above, then they're OK fans. If you're looking for performance, the H100 fans are better. At low speed, the H100 fans are only 22 dB, and I bet they perform as well or better at low speed than the Cougars do at high speed. Note you can always remove the LEDs from your front fan. However, if you get a 20mm thick fan you should be able to get it to work. If you buy a 25mm thick fan, you will need to move your drive cages back or cut the front curl off of them. If you purchase a 30mm thick fan, you will have to move the drive cages back or remove them completely. You can make the H100 exhaust by using pull, or intake by using push. Modding required for push/pull or push/exhaust.

I might be late on this but I used these which worked out great for me, and don't worry about HDD heat issues with these things, i've been running my setup with the silenx for about 8 months now.

I'm replacing the front intake fan with a 200mm Spectre Pro LED (white), putting an NF-F12 in the 5.25" bays, installing an NF-S12B in the rear, and I'm currently sleeving my PSU with white paracord (shrinkless).thumb.gif
May I ask why you have no drives plugged into the Intel sata 3 controller? It's supposed to be faster than other sata 3 controllers and I don't see anything about SSD caching on your mobo on the Asus website.

Unfortunately, the Intel SATA ports on my board drop out intermittently --SATA II & III. I got tired of having to reboot my machine to recover, so I just moved both of my SATA III drives to the Marvell SATA III controller. I had no choice but to use Intel for my ODD and SATA II SDD.

No amount of BIOS, driver, or firmware updates have solved my Intel problem.mad.gif

It's a Rev 3.1 3.0 Deluxe. (I mixed my board up with my kids P8P67 which is 3.1.) Other than the SATA issue, it really is an amazing board.
