    fan cfm

    In my cheify midi i have two intake fans 45cfm each, two outs, 45 each and the psu one. so thats 90 in and around 105 out. i have 1 120mm ~105cfm and 1 92mm ~50cfm spare i want to put in, i was thinking about the 92 in the front, in, and the 120 out on the top although this would mean 140 in, 210 out which would cause a nective pressure inside. anyone have any ideas on the setup?? thanks

    What's the point in the 120mm and the 92mm... You already have plenty of air going through your case by the sounds of things, and adding these extra fans will only make it noiser.

    I currently have 4 80mm fans in my Chieftech Scorpion Midi Tower... All Zalman quiet fans, usually output around 28cfm each @ 20CFM, but i've 7ved them all to make them very quiet, and i still run my XP1700 @ XP2200 speeds!

    Also, remember to have a BALANCED AIR FLOW.

    Theres no point having more air going than is going out, and vice versa, as it will all cause turbulance.

    ideas on the set up

    LOUD Theres no need for 4 45 cfm fans in a case max you really need is 25

    when u add the 4 45 cfm fans together the sound nere doubles as well
    Someone left a note on a piece of cake in the fridge that said, "Do not eat!". I ate the cake and left a note saying, "Yuck, who the hell eats paper ?

    im not worried about sound, i can handel it! I have a loud stero! i also have an 80mm vantec 85cfm on HS . i also have made my own baybus 7v - off - 12v just 7v - 12v for HSF, which makes it quite a bit softer.
