Ahoy
I'm in a tough spot. After changing my case and reinstalling every component for the purpose of cooling my hot system down, Im not fully satisfied.
I got me a new Antec 900 II and got couple degrees difference.
The case has two extra 120mm fan slots, one located approximately in the center of the case and the second one on the side panel (the right one, with the plexiglass).
The question is, will installing some good fans in those slots make a noticable difference? Or will my unlucky cabel&component placement make it an unnecessary expense?
The fans I was looking at was Noctua's NF P-12 1300rpm.
Here comes some pictures of the case.
Notice that the "center" fan mount is the black plastic thingy to the right of the MoBo.
The "overview" (notice the empty fan slot which i just mentioned)

The machine from left (notice the empty fan slot to the right of the gpu's)

So should I install the fans, will i notice the difference? Any other opinions/tips on the rig?
Faithfully yours
