Bit Fenix Fans

[baz178]

Hi looking for some better fans for my case to try and cool down my gpu that is making abit of noise while gaming, the standard bit fenix fans are rubbish and hardly push any air out.

So what I want to do is achieve better airflow in my case with new fans at the front and at the top of the case. Could anybody recommend any fans to get for the bit fenix case and would I need to have a mesh front to achieve a better air flow ?

abit stuck for room on the top of the case so that would after be a 120mm but can get a big one at the front as I have plenty of room

if you could list the product below that would be a big help thanks

that's my case http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-144-BX&groupid=2362&catid=1850

Stick your favourite color of a 230mm on the front (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/search_results.php?keywords=230mm&_=1410276792997).

You won't need anything else as the case is quite small, and I am assuming you have a fan at the back as exhaust as well. What GPU is it, and is it blowing air out (Blower-style reference), or a special one (2-3 fans, mixing air "inside" the case)? Also, is your sidepanel windowed, or does it have a mesh?

As for your question about the mesh front, it won't make a difference with the proper fans.

I know the fans that come with the case don't push "that much" air, but they are quiet as hell, so they'll make the ideal top fans once you provide some more specs in order to determine whether it's best to have them blow in or out. I got the same case on my 2nd build.

thanks for getting back. The back fan is a Corsair Hydro H90 140mm High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler. The side panel is metal with small holes at the side for the gpu heat to get out, all the fans are blowing inside the computer.

what are you saing I should swap the front and top fans so they are blowing out instead of in ?

Which GPU is it, specifically? This is quite an important bit to determine the case's total airflow.

I'll get back to the other questions on next post

It's a Gigabyte Radeon R9 290 Rev2.0 WindForce 3X OC 4096MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
