Hey there guys, I'm planning to buy this case in a couple of months, but I have a few questions I need help with before I can pull the trigger:
1: Will a 140mm Noctua NF-P14 fan fit as exhaust or do I need to use a 120mm fan instead?
2: What's the recommended fan setup if I plan to use an overclocked Gtx 680 and Ivy Bridge CPU? I was thinking 2x120mm front intake (I'm guessing 2x140mm will not fit in the front), 1x120 (preferably 140mm) exhaust, and 1x140mm (if possible) exhaust fan on the top.
I figured a 140mm side intake would be optimal but sounds like I would have to remove the side panel for that to work, correct? Problem is, I need this case to be somewhat silent, so removal of side-panels sounds... noisy.
Bonus question: Would a Noctua C14 cpu-cooler restrict airflow to the exhaust in the back? I pretty much need a decent cpu-cooler because I'll overclock Ivy Bridge for sure, but I want to avoid having more than 4 or 5 fans in total.
As you can see, I'm still unsure about the optimal fan setup.
