Phanteks T30

I just found I have one of these brand new, so I am considering purchasing another 2 and replacing my front 3 120mm case fans.

Has anybody tried these in a BeQuiet pure base 500dx? Hoping somebody can tell me if there is any compatibility issues with the case.

Cheers.

Ive not tried them fans. But the fans that come with that case are decent. Maybe try them out first.

They are in use, 1 exhaust and 2 intake on top... Their issue is they ain't PWM but yeah good fans.

Trouble is they are 140mm so can only get 2 of them front when I want 3.

I run 9 of these on a big radiator, they're awesome fans that do serious RPM with 2 different modes. I usually run them around 1200rpm which even at that range shift serious air while being super quiet. Can only imagine them being even quieter without a restrictive radiator in the way.

The only thing to note is, they are 30mm thick fans compared to the standard 25mm. I dont think you'll run into issues installing them into your 500dx though.

Cheers, I think my only obstacle may be the front filter behind the mesh panel but I could remove that anyhow.
