How fix 120/140 mm fan on front ?

[oxoCreations]

Hello,

I search a (good) solution to fix two 120 or 140mm fan in my case.

I want to create a good air flow with two fan on front, two 80mm fan on the mountain mods tray for extraction.

But I've no idea to make a clean fix. Any idea ??

Thx !

PS : If you want some pictures, ask me I'll make a post when the project is finished !

Have a look at my first build. The front intake fans are referenced here...

Hi!

Thx for answers!

I love the solution with the lian Li T60! But i live in France and shipping is more expansive than the product....

So i think I'll check for chaosdeshns's solution.

In general this is an awesome idea! You can buy any radiator frame for watercooling to cover the radiator/fans.
So there are frames for sth like 20€ to cover/fix 1x/2x 120/140mm fans:

I just took off the rear fans of my G5 Powermac and figured they could be attached to the front. I could then turn the fans around so it would be sucking air into the case as opposed to pushing it out, as it does at the back.

Any reason this wouldn't work?

If you attach the fans directly behind the mesh of the G5 front, you will get a noisy airflow.

Can anyone else verify this? I do believe you but I can't see why it would be noisy. Wouldn't t be the same as at the rear?

Just try and hold a running fan in front of the mesh. Compare without mesh, pulling and pushing.
The less resistance -> the better.
