I have no idea what to get for 200mm fans for my NZXT Phantom 820 Ultra+. It supports up to 9 fans, but I'm going with possibly 8 fans both compiling of 140mm and 200mm fans.
All of my 140mm fans, and eventually even the 140mm fans on my Kraken X60 will all be:
Noctua 140mm Premium Quiet Quality Fan (NF-A14 PWM)
Now as for my 200mm fans, I have no idea... I was thinking of the NZXT 200mm fans:
NZXT Technologies FZ 200mm RF-ZF20S-U1
But I don't know the difference and there's no clear definitive or marked difference between NZXT fans like the FZ, or FS fans.
What I'm wondering about are what are good, reliable 200mm fans, and what configuration would you use in a beast like the 820? What configuration would you use for the radiator? Pull, Pull push, or push? Radiator on the top of the case with fans underneath or fans at the top and the radiator underneath?
NOTE: I am trying to refrain from using the all-popular Corsair parts in my machine. I find Corsair to be pompes and dickish.
PS. Does anyone know what rating the stock fans are in the NZXT 820?
