Hey guys, I just wanted to know how good are the Corsair Stock LED Fans you get with the Corsair 400R. I'm currently using them and after adding Noctua fans on the side of the case and along with replacing H100i's stock fans and being absolutely impressed, I thought about replacing the remaining fans (2 front intake and 1 back exhaust) with Noctuas.

So the question is, are the Corsair 400R front intakes good enough or should I replace them with NF-P12 Fans, and what Noctua fan should I use as exhaust 120mm or 140mm accepted.

At the moment I have the Stock Led Intake fans attached and a H100i Stock Cooler as Exhaust(I think it beats the stock exhaust fan that came with the 400R and I had the fans lying around after replacing them with Noctuas)

Thanks

I got the case a month ago, and they are doing just fine for me. The two front leds are an awesome feature, even though I leave them off most of the time. i would say that if you dont care about the leds and you have done some overclocking on your CPU or GPU, you should go ahead and replace them. If you really want the leds, or don't overclock, then its not worth upgrading! I hope this helped! :)
