Hey guys,
I'm revamping my old rig slowly but surely, and I have a question regarding fans and airflow. I just picked up an Antec 300 case and an Arctic Cooling Freezer Pro 7 for my old 64-bit P4 processor. I'm wonder which fans I should get for the front of the 300 case, if I should get a fan for the side vent to bring cool air in, and if I should replace the stock rear and top exhaust fans.
I've also got an ATI X800XL (soon to be HD4870) and a HT Omega sound card, along with tv tuner card. I'm also planning on getting a new power supply (CoolMax CUG-700B 700W modular power supply). Eventually will be upgrading the mobo to support a Q9450.
I'm not opposed to spending a little extra money to get good fans (quiet and good air flow), but I don't need fancy LED lights. Variable fan speed is somewhat desired, but I don't know how to set it up (though I'm sure I could find it).
Thanks for any suggestions in advance.
