Hi, im looking for a 200 mm fan to add to my case to cool the graphics card, and to cool the internals of the case in general, what would be the best 200 mm fan to get, preferably with a LED light on it.

Also, is there a bad choice when it comes to getting fans? im new to all this computer building so im not sure what to get and what is good and bad.

Thanks

I have a cooler master megaflow, and to be honest, it's been pretty good to me, I have it on the top of my case as an exhaust fan. That's important. If you want to cool the case with a 200mm fan you're probably barking up the wrong tree. Tell ya why, all that space, and all you're gonna get out of it is a measly 60 - 80 CFM almost no matter what you get, so if you can put 120s in there in the place, you can get a lot more cool air at the expense of noise, the 200s are quiet in general, they just don't move a lot of air. If you wait for a mail in rebate, you can get the cooler master megaflows like mine for like 7$ or so rather than the 15 - 25 that 200s normally go for. And they come in different colors.
