Noctua nf-p14 in an Antec Sonata III?

[stuplarosa]

The Noctua nf-p14 case fan looks interesting. Anyone know if it will actually fit in an Antec Sonata III case?

Thanks,

Okay. Since nobody answered, I went out and bought the fan anyway.

The good news: The fan just fits in the case. The holes were a little out of alignment, but since the fan uses the little rubber mounting pegs it worked out okay.

The bad news: The handle on the side panel gets in the way of putting the side panel back on!


I'm thinking about just removing the handle. Any ideas for plugging the hole?

Thanks,
mike.

Any suggestions on how to fix the hole left by removing the handle? I don't think duct tape is quite right.
