Hey all,
I recently changed to a Corsair Carbide 300R case which is great, except for one thing.
The mesh on the side panel is causing a particular noise when I mount a side intake fan on there, even with rubber washers to dampen vibrations.
This appears to be caused by the fan sucking air through the metal mesh, so I was wondered if using another 25mm fan carcass as a shroud would reduce this?
It's not that fast a fan either, as it's a Silverstone Suscool 121@900rpm.
Just wanted to ask first before I ruined a fan by stripping it out for the shroud.
