It is. Two actually in a push pull config exhausting air out of the case to the rear. They're extremely quiet compared to the stock fans, which are god awfully loud. They also perform a lot better as well, keeping my 3930k below 70c at 4.2Ghz while benching.
Sweet!
Looks like my local MicroCenter has the CPU and MOBO for a lot cheaper:

Hi all -
I'm looking to build a new machine based around an Intel 3770k and Nvidia 660TI (EVGA). I already have an HDD, monitor, and PSU (Corsair HX750). Looking for advice on other components, mainly motherboard and RAM... I'm thinking to build inside a Fractal Design Arc Midi...
What...
That's a great idea. I saw a YouTube video of a guy who removed both HDD cages, and mounted the smaller one to the bottom of the lowest optical drive bay. It's a great idea and gives you three mounts to play with. I'm toying with the idea, but I'm really liking the look/performance of my current...
Yep, either way, it doesn't make a difference on heat, airflow, etc. I put mine this way because my PSU (OCZ Fatal1ty 1000) has a nice red fan and matches my case theme nicely.
Some will tell you to mount the PSU with the fan facing down to lessen the chance of anything falling in it, up to you.
