Hi.

I wanna know if I'd get more cooling from the fan pre-installed on a haf 932 or with (2) 120mm fans.

I already bought 6 of these and I replaced the side's 230mm fan with 4 of them; I switched the 140mm fan; and added 1 to the top.

I like the LEDs on the fans and they push air very well, but I don't know if 2 of them 'd be better than the one that's on there.

What do you think?

Leave it as it is now. Unless that is you get a 3rd 120mm fan for the top.

I already added the third 120mm fan. Its right above my DVD drive.

3 fans

I'm asking if I should use 3 fans like this ^

or if I should use the 230mm fan it came with and the 120mm fan I installed on it yesterday.

Ah so when did you get a new rig my friend? I think that case is awesome cause you're going to get a lot of air circulation. ;) :)

not too long ago; I'm on it now. :D Wasn't hard at all to put it together.

(I hope that doesn't hurt your business, but it really wasn't)

Anyway...what do you think? (2) 120mm fans or (1) 230mm fan?

Well it hurts my business a tiny bit but I'll forgive you ;). one 230mm fan will be quieter and better airflow overall ;)

That's good to know; now I won't have to buy more fans. :D

If only the fan had some LEDs. :cry: I'll get over it.

Thanks.

hopefully. :D

Maybe then they'd stop asking me to play on the 360, atleast stop asking me to play on the [whisper] PS3 [/whisper] :lol:

They know I chose the 360 over the PS3; why do they keep asking me to play? :x

Tell them that the REAL gaming experience is on the PC! :P (try and tease them a little bit and say that your Gaming rig is super cool!) :P :) Also I hate to say it but consoles are really just proprietary computers (just much much cheaper, but the hardware they contain is really no match for even the cheapest gaming rigs) ;)

you're preaching to the choir. But I'll remind them of that.
