Does anybody have the Antec 1200 with the side-fan and the other optional fan near the HDD's installed?

What fans did you use and what's the difference in temperature before and after?


Thanks!

I had a 900. A aftermarket cooler on the GPU. The side fan did help on temps. It was Yate Loon medium fan.
The one at the bottom could help if you have cards in the lower slot, but it doesn't really increase case flow a lot. The side fan blowing in IS a good idea.

Diff in temps can be so objective depending on fans, what you use as cooling systems etc. It's way to diff to know exactly for sure.

Built 2 for friends using the Antec 1200. Used these fans for the one mounted inside that case.

1 with Yate Loon 120mm High Speed Silent Case Fan - D12SH-12 - Sleeved $6.95

1 with Scythe "SLIP STREAM" 120mm Case Fan" 1900 rpm Quiet Case Fan - Ultra Speed - Sleeved $9.95
http://www.performance-pcs.com/cat [...] s_id=22545

And Both with this Blue LED in door.
Thermaltake Thunderblade 120mm Low Noise Blue LED Case Fan - Sleeved $10.99

Really did not check temps(without and with), since they were install during the build. But I know the CPU's in both are running around 30 degree celius, the GTX 295 in both on stock fan speed was around 45 degrees celius. If that is any help to you.
