whoops. LOL! I was browsing memory express and thought i'd selected the right size and didn't think much about it from there

We ask this because we could recommend you a 120mm Delta fan that spins fast enough to chop your fingers off and is loud or a 120mm Corsair RGB lighting fan
Well, when I feel the display window of my case, I do notice that it gets quite warm, so i'm assuming theres not enough air flow to keep it relatively cool. So, in terms of what i'm after, obviously a quiet fan would be nice but i'd like to make sure the computer isn't keeping too much heat trapped. Lights, while they look nice, are just a bonus that isn't necessary.


So, a decent balance between noise and air flow, the lights I can do with or without

I believe the max sizes would be the 120mm and 90mm. i'm just a noob and started looking at, and posting links for 200mm fans
