Is this fan good for my build and how many are there?

Solution


1. Fans come 1 to a package unless indicted otherwise (i.e. Corsair)

2. Look at your case link, clock on specifications tab

120mm Fans

Hmmm, good catch. That thing is $10 cheaper than the Haswell he had listed. Shocked.
 
The Phanteks fans are far better .... $10 here..... $26 up in Canada ..... owwww. Look at some of these:

The Barracuda is $1 cheaper and sits in 8th place on THG's HD rankings .... the WD Blue's ranking is below 50th place

Tho since ya don't have an SSD, for just $25 more, I'd highly recommend getting a hybrid SSD/HD

Oh I meant how many fans come in the Case Fan: Fractal Design FD-FAN-SSR2-140 66.0 CFM 140mm Fan ($19.99 @ Memory Express) . It looks like just one.

Oh and I didn't know that the case comes with 3 fans. Can anyone confirm this? If so, do I really need to buy the extra Case Fan: Fractal Design FD-FAN-SSR2-140 66.0 CFM 140mm Fan ($19.99 @ Memory Express)?

And @Wallaby The 4690k costs 20$ more here in Canada. Should I still get it? Would it make any difference? I'm trying to cut down costs if anything. =P
 


1. Fans come 1 to a package unless indicted otherwise (i.e. Corsair)

2. Look at your case link, clock on specifications tab
http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146087&AID=10657534

120mm Fans
Front: 1 x 120mm
Rear: 1 x 120mm

140mm Fans
Top: 1 x 140mm

3. Speed and Tempos are main differences

a) 4690k = 3.5 Ghz
b) 4670k = 3.4 Ghz

90k CPUs have the new and improved TIM

The 4690k should overclock a bit further if you are into that, but if you want to, you can just get the 4670k. And the case comes with 3 fans as shown in the pictures of the case. The website in the link is a confirmation of the amount of fans.http://www.nzxt.com/product/detail/95-phantom-410-mid-tower-case I recommend the original Phantom if you can get it as it does have better cooling. Amazon has it but I am not sure about Canadian pricing.
