New case and RGB fans

[energizer123]

Hi all,

I've used my case for long enough and it's time for an upgrade. I've had a Phanteks Evolv for 5 years and it's served me well but the airflow is an issue now.

Understand all of the below represents terrible value for money but I've accepted that. Is there anything that you would change? I like the fact the fans minimise the cables. Just want the best possible.

I will be using 3 fans at front, 3 bottom and AIO at top. 5900X and 3090 be going in to be replaced by 4090 when I can.

thanks all

Thanks both - really appreciate it.

So in summary, the cooler has the ST fans, so easiest probably to just buy them for the whole case. The blades light up, just missing the mirrored part.

It would hurt me to have some mirrored and some not, but would hurt me even more to spend an extra 70 to replace the AIO fans. I will have a look at youtube to have a proper look.

How do people rate corsair vs. lian li fans? My impression was the later were currently better.

Thanks all - that's great. I will go for SL INF. Assume I will just have just have to replace the fans on the AIO to match the rest.
