I asked this question in the overclocking and cooling forum and nobody seemed to know. If you don't know what I'm talking about look here http://www.performance-pcs.com/cata...th=322&zenid=120ed974f49553a3295fd24c7d206e84 isn't that an awesome idea? I want to cut out the plexi on my Ultra Aluminus (where the 80mm duct is) and put one of these bad boys on there. Anybody know where I can get one without having to buy an entire side panel?
 
I'm thinking you'll sort of hit a plateau of how much air you can move after 120mm honestly. And I'm not sure how loud that is, but it looks like it'll be loud and not worth the neglibable increase in air flow in comparison with a well placed 120mm fan.

I think you better look again, 17 dB isn't loud, it's barely audible.

17db and cooling the entire mobo including proc and videocard with a single fan sounds pretty good to me.
 
That's pretty slick. Couldn't find them without a case or side panel though.

Must be strictly to OEMs, lots of compnaies using them in their cases, but no bare fans, sorry.

Unless you spend the $35 and take the fan off the panel. $35 isn't tooo bad :D

Here you go. I dont know how loud it is though. But this website will give you some ideas to mods if you look over the site.

And the site its self.

Thanks, that's headed in the right direction but not the same kind of fan...that one is actually smaller. I hope someone can figure out who makes the 250mm fan on the TT cases and a vendor selling them separately.
