Calling all Antec Super Lanboy owners... past and present !

my front fan has started to make a nasty grinding noise... anyone here replaced that fan for something else that still fits inside the front grill? not fussed if it doesn't have an LED in it, just want a quiet, high cfm fan to cool my HDD's behind it...

Also.. has anyone ever put any fans in the side window? thinking about 2x 80mm fans over the gfx cards to keep them nice and cool :cool:
 
okie doke.. my plan was 2 80 MM fans.... both blowing in...

what did you do with the front fan? im soon going to have 4 HDDs there (74 gig raptor boot, 250 gig 7200.10 and 2x either 500 gig samsung spinpoints or 750 gig 7200.10s.... want to make sure theres adequate cooling for them !
 
i just used an amber 120mm fan, any 120x25 fan will fit in there. i've stopped using the front fan though as my case wasn't getting hot enough. only have one drive suspended in there.
 
The front fan is very quiet and doesn't blow a lot of air, if I were you I'd get something like an Akasa Amber, or if you still want the LED on the front get a Hiper flow 120mm LED or an Akasa 120mm LED :)
 
i had to 5v the amber to make it silent, the akasa led will be louder on full volts but is fine on 5v. i find the grilles far too restrictive on the front to push decent air, harddisks also don't require that much airflow to keep cool.
 
im tempted to put an antec amber there, but looking at the grill behind, it looks pretty restrictive... might cut it out to aid airflow
 
AREET!

ive got a lanboy (thanks OCUK) and wondered how do you 5v the front 120mm fan??? apart from a little noise, the case is spot-on!!
Its SO good i may get round to posting some pics..... :D

I have an amber as the front intake, it makes a loud whooshing noise, the grill behind it could do with being cut out I think.
