Phanteks Enthoo Primo Full Tower Case

Techen · 4 Nov 2014 at 22:13

I bought the above case and well, I wanted to get a 480MM rad for it since it fits however, When I was looking at getting fans for it, Its gonna cost me an extra 100 QUID in fans... for push pull.

Is there anything cheaper than Corsair SP fans?

You could always just go push or pull. I'm building the same case at the minute and have a 480 in the roof with one set of fans. Don't think the 2/3 degree difference is worth the £100 as I have the same fans.

Techen · 4 Nov 2014 at 22:44

Eh... I guess 50 quid of SP fans then

do you really need to go push pull? i've got the same case

I'd go with any of these bundles actually
YOUR BASKET
3 x Three Fan Bundle - Parvum Systems F1.0 Performance Fan - White £28.99 (£86.97)
3 x Three Fan Bundle - Parvum Systems F1.0 Performance Fan - Black £28.99 (£86.97)
3 x Three Fan Bundle - Silverstone SST-FQ121 FQ Series 1225 PWM - Watercooling Optimised Fan £19.99 (£59.97)
Total : £248.93 (includes shipping : £12.50).

you'll even have a spare fan at the end than you can sell

That was my thinking

just waiting on a QDC and a power cable and I'll have all my bits and finally be able to put it together.

Are Pervum fans really good for static pressure/rads?

If so I really really like the looks of those white ones to match my white coolant...

by the looks of it, that's what they were designed for. I haven't tested them myself

A while back ocuk were selling akasa piranhas at £4.99 each, (normally £14.00). Great for rads due to high static pressure. Bonus of being PWM too so would work well with the primos fan hub.

The Pervums are PWM as well.. Its tempting...

Alz_D · 4 Nov 2014 at 23:00

Another white option although more expensive than the parvum. Have been told these are very good and very quiet.

Techen · 4 Nov 2014 at 23:02

Hmmm, 55 quid compared to 28 quid..

Techen · 4 Nov 2014 at 23:03

I thin, I will remove my Corsair fans from my 360 rad thats in my old case and put them onto my new 480 MM. Then use those new parvums on my smaller rads. So long as the large rad has some decent fans on it am happy.

Cheers fokes.

jimbaw · 4 Nov 2014 at 23:03

the eloops are awesome fans but very pricey. I'm probably going for the parvum or new special silverstone ones when they're out

setter · 4 Nov 2014 at 23:08

I've used the alpenfohn wingboosts, which the parvums basically are. Found them decent on a heat sink in push/pull, (alpenfohn k2). Very high quality fans and not too loud.

setter · 4 Nov 2014 at 23:16

Look forward to seeing the build, the primo is an excellent case. Heavy beast though.

Alz_D · 4 Nov 2014 at 23:17

Just make sure you bend your knees when you lift it

these things weigh a ton without being full of water gear !! And yeah defo get pics up when it's done.

Techen · 4 Nov 2014 at 23:19
