Re: Hexagonal holes problem and CPU fan recommendation
Thanks but I forgot to mention that CPU cooler Coolermaster TPC 600 only accepts 120mm fan. Have you considered Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM , its a nice fan and its 120mm, controllable from 300-2100rpms. If you don't like the color or pricing, check Scythe Kaze Flex PWM , controllable from 300-1200rpms. E...

@ Abula Thanks but I forgot to mention that CPU cooler Coolermaster TPC 600 only accepts 120mm fan. On thermaltake page, in their lineup I only see this 120mm fan: http://www.thermalright.de/en/fans/59/ty-127?c=10 There is a note: *Please be aware of the fact, the TY-127 is only compatible to the Ma...

Re: Hexagonal holes problem and CPU fan recommendation
Stupid questions: Is it okay if on Noctua page for my fan is stated that minimal speed is 750rpm but on my PC it is on 650rpm. Normal? No any kind of damage/problem for fan? Also for my Phanteks in BIOS I can set them to min duty cycle 40% (that should set them below 600rpm but didn`t), they are st...

Re: Hexagonal holes problem and CPU fan recommendation
When SPCR reviewed the R5 as a gaming build , Mike found that having a bottom fan didn't add any value, but adding a second front fan did. Since you have the two Phanteks, it might be best for thermal and acoustic performance to place them both in the front and place the Fractal fan in the rear. Th...

Re: Hexagonal holes problem and CPU fan recommendation
Ok - thanks for the additional information. Here's what I'd try first: put both Phanteks in front with their quiet speed adapters, put one of the Fractal fans in the rear, and remove/turn off the bottom fan. If it isn't already so, close the top moduvent, so you have a clear front to back airflow. ...

Re: Hexagonal holes problem and CPU fan recommendation
Welcome to SPCR. Could you describe the other components (motherboard, gfx card, PSU, etc) so we can understand the total system and the heat generated? So, only two case fans used and they are positioned in front and on the bottom? My first thought is to move the bottom fan to the rear and then pl...
