Will this combo power all the FANS?

[czigoh]

I have never built a system before. But I have replaced HDD / Ram / Video / Audio cards / reformated drives / reinstalled OS and Apps.

I am concerned that the combo below will NOT power all the fans in the system.

1.) Will it power all the fans?
2.) Do I need an additional fan controller?
3.) Will I need fan cable extensions? 3 or 4 pin cables?

Very quiet and very effective cooler, may add a second fan in a push / pull arrangement.

1.) Yes
2.) No
3.) No
No extra HDD cooling required.

Are you creating a wind tunnel to test aircraft in your case? Why so many fans? There is no need for the optional fans. A buddy has this case, and it already has overkill airflow. haha

Plus doesnt the 1200 use the molex connectors for it's fans? You will be fine.


By the way you will REALLY like that case, it's NICE. the 902 is the mid tower version of this and looks just like it but with 2 fans in the front.

The computer room is on the SUNNY side of my house and it gets very warm in the summers.

So I am looking at using MORE fans total but using them at lower speeds across the board.

I am hoping this gives me the cooling I want (and need??) with out excessive fan / system noise.

I believe most of the Antec 1200 fans use the 4 pin connections

You can get a simple water cooling setup if heat is an issue. It would remove that high ambient temp issue you have with air cooling. Just a thought.

High ambient temps are never fun to deal with. Even still, there is still only so much air you can move to get the optimal temp in a certain environment. The top large fan and 5 other fans in the 1200 do a fine job. Even on low.
