[halfpipehippie]

hey, i have Newegg.com - Once You Know, You Newegg
this case, i have a 120 in the back and an 80 on the side, in the front bottom it looks like i can fit a 120, can i and should i? thanks

If you can yes, it's a good idea to have a front fan to suck cool air in and blow it over the HDD's.

Basically, anywhere you can put a fan you should, and the bigger the better. Not only will it move air but it will actually be considerably quieter than an 800 mm.

i was just wondering if it would work, cause the location looks like it wouldnt get any air flow at all, idk where the air would come from for down there

 

[sabashuali]

It will get air flow and to a very important area - the HDD(s).
Ultra important!!!

Go with what max said.

my HDD is at like 27c, can it get much cooler with a fan added?

 

[Matt555]

No but it's good to have as much airflow over your HDD as possible, plus having a good fan at the from helps with overall case cooling and airflow.

I think he meant he doesn't know what FPS he is getitng, not what FPS is.

If you want to be safe do this.

Only kidding.

I too would suggest putting the fan on, more the merrier :)

 

[Swansen]

Its actully glass all around. and believe it or not the fan closes into the case, so its all sealed, I see where your coming from though, it does look like an open case :x:
