Cases with 120mm fan INTAKES?

[Pandamonium]

Anyone know of any? I checked an old post and looked up the cases there, but I couldn't tell from a the pictures/descriptions whether the 120mm fans were intakes or exhausts on some of the cases. Suggestions?

Check out the Antec cases. I believe the Lanboy series have both 120mm intake and exhaust fan slots.

You can get more pics of the cases if you go to www.newegg.com and search for the antec cases.

Mid tower cases with room for 120mm intake and exhaust.

Enermax has some as well. check them out on newegg. i just bought one within the last week.

You could also mount a 120mm intake in your side panel above
your CPU

Anyone know of any Full towers with 120mm fan intakes or exhausts?

With a full tower, if it doesn't come with 12cm holes, there's plenty of room to make them.

The Antec SLK3700 and some of the compucase models (DA series-really the same design as the SLK) have 12cm in and out

Well, the SuperMicro SC760P4 and SC762 doesn't have room for the 120cm for the intakes as there are 3 80mm fans on the lower front in one line.

I believe the Liteon FS020 could carry 3 120mm fans... ...don't think they sell it anymore though.

My personal favorite, the antec sonata, has both 120mm intake and exhaust. It also has a total of 9 bays.

What does the Sonata case look like? Also, how many fans are there in total? Is it just 1 intake and 1 exhaust? The SuperMicro SC760P4/SC762 has a total of 14 bays. It has 3 80mm fans in the front which on mines is 50CFM each. And then there is the 120mm behind the CPU for exhaust which is another 92CFM. Then there is the 92mm fan above the PSU for another 60CFM or so. I guess the only bad thing is I wished it had a 120mm intake.

Sonata pics

According to the Antec website, under Features it shows 120 mm x 25 mm fans in front and rear.

addtronics 7896a series, chenbro geneis, and lite-ons can all be modified with front 120mm intakes can they not?

The SuperMicro is the Addtronics 7896A case made by Addtronics for SuperMicro. Addtronics has a 120mm intake and 80mm intake in the front but the backboard is 80mm only and 80mm above PSU (coolcases modifies to 92mm). The SuperMicro SC760P4 and SC762 have 3x 80mm for the intakes and 120mm backboard behind the CPU with 92mm above the PSU. Where does one buy the Chenbro or Lite-On cases?

Yeah, saw that already... the only problem with coolcases is the 7896a costs $117 but with all the mods, the case costs nearly $500 and it still doesn't have the 120mm backboard exhast fan which is on the SuperMicro SC760P4 and SC762 already. The 7896a can only get a 92mm fan there as max.

Fong Kai FK-320 has a spot for a 120 at the front, and a 92 in the rear.

The Antec Lanboy only uses 80 mm fans. Gotta go with the SLK3700AMB or the Sonata.

I got my chenbro junior from them.... it has a 120 intake, 80 intake on hard drive cage, and 120 exhaust. A VERY nice case overall.

I had the grills cut, aluminum mesh filters installed, fan mounting holes drilled out and rubber gromits installed, and another 80 intake punched in the front.
Granted, that's a little overboard, but with shipping and fans included it ran me about 180

I just picked up a Chenbro Xpider which has 120mm rear and 92mm in the front:

I bought mine here along with a 92mm and 120mm Sunon fan. Sweet case, the pics don't do it justice!

I got a Antec SLK3700AMB recently it is great, has one 120mm front mount plastic holder, and one rear 120mm exhaust plastic holder. Works great with the $4.99 120mm x 25mm Titan 84cfm fans available at Pcmods.com. The case was $64 shipped total I believe. It is just the right size for me and the smoke mirrored car like finish paint job is great for the price. It comes with a lot of extras that cheap cases would not come with including rubber acoustic mounts on ALL of the 5 x 3.5" hard drive bays, and a quality Antec power supply of course. All of the drive bays slide out including the one for the floppy, slide out rails are used on all of the 5 1/4 bays. The 3.5" hard drive bays on this case are designed smarter than the older Antec's like the SX830 and SX1040 series IMHO. Slide off side door, thumb screws everywhere, and two front mounted USB ports sealed the deal.

One review of the case:

Here's a nice testimonial for Antec. My SLK3700AMB arrived damaged. The front plastic bezel was broken. I e-mailed Antec customer service, who offered to mail me a replacement bezel right away, for no cost. I didn't have to fight with fedex, or the store I bought from. Now that's customer service.

another vote for the antec 3700. 2 x 120 fans, solid construction, slide out drive housing w/ rubber grommets to minimize vibration, removable door. grey color is nice by itself - but beige drives look bad in it and black is not exact match.
