What do you think about this case?

[Cuthroat]

it shows only coming with one fan right? Doesnt it need at least two if not three

 

[nezzari]

It comes with 1 fan, but it can have a total of 3 (1 80 and 2 120).

Is 3 fans enough?

When you look under Detailed Specs it says that the PSU isn't included. Just wanted to make sure you were aware of that. Although, with the rebate $30 doesn't seem like a bad price for the PSU. But I don't know anything about that brand so $30 could be a rip off.

I say take the chance, though, and let us know how it turns out. Easy for me to say though, it isn't my money.

BTW, 3 fans should be fine as long as they're good fans.

Think those fans would do?

There are 2 models, I'm getting the one with the PSU.

I have that case and it's actually pretty good at cooling with just 3 fan's,But if you want to add another fan there's enough space in the top so you can cut and put another 120mm

I've never built a system before (yea, I'm sad >.<) Is it hard to setup another fan?

Well, the only thing I don't like about it is that it does not use the snap-in type HDD slots, looks like it is all screws. On the other hand, how many times does one really take the guts in and out?

And as for the comment on connectors, I'd be willing to bet that a touch of dielectric grease on the connectors would take the resistance down to solder levels, or nearly so. It really couldn't be all THAT bad, could it?

 

[C0RR0SIVE]

Yes it could be, who would wanna put something on the connections anyways? Lets see, them cables can be 1-2 foot each, but the connection at the component adds maybe 1-3 foot worth in resistance, then the OTHER connection at the PSU adds about another 1-3 foot in resistance giving you what could be 3-12 foot..... We all say less cable is better, so a 3-12 foot cable in there delivering power to each part isnt very good....

Well, the first one is kinda loud, IMHO. This one is below the 38 dBA threshold that has been shown to be annoying: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16835119045 On the other hand, it DOES move less air in CFM.

Or: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811999965

This one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811999346 is only 26 dBA, but it is only 53 CFM.

Go for a fan with balls (bearing, that is!), and the highest CFM/lowest dBA you can find.

yah thats true i would not go with a modular either.But it stops that damn rats nest.
