From the reviews I've looked at the Define R5, has a wide fan hole cut outs at the top of the case, with the moduvents removed. I've been thinking of placing an H110i with the radiator and fans at the top, just my preference. I would like to know if it would completely cover the entire holes cut out, because some fans don't, and since they don't have a fan filter, a lot of dust can easily come through. Please let me know if you are using this case.

If a 140mm fan is 14cm x 14cm, then I guess it wouldn't cover entire hole cut out. :(

No, I guess not. Maybe you could DIY a filter screen? Cut up a piece of stocking/panty hose and clip or screw it into place around the fan.

Well, I really don't want to put a dust filter on the exhaust fans, because any dust that tries to go out from the case will be stuck in. Or I could try and cut out a filter to cover only the open areas I guess.
