900D Fan Choice

[BigDaddyKong]

Next week I plan to pick up a 900D to replace my HAF X. I plan to replace the front three fans, and the rear 140 with Corsair fans. I already have 4 SP120's push pull on my H100i.

My question is do I want AF fans for the front, or should I get the SP fans to help push air through the HD bays to get more air to my graphics cards?

think of it this way. SP static pressure designed to push air THRU something like a rad, better suited for up against something. AF Air flow better suited for dispersing air thru-out, better suited for moving air around in open spaces.

Save your money and get a cheaper case. 900D is pointless with an h100i.
Go for a Fractal Arc Midi R2 or a NZXT H440.

+1.

Unless you are going for a full watercooling solution. Using a 900D for just 100i is overkill. There is always 750D if you want that style of case. or event the new H440.

Also Stock fans (AF120L) on the 900D I find are pretty decent. I haven't replaced mine...yet

Next year, I will be due for a graphics card's upgrades, so I will do a full loop then. I can't get a full block for my current 7970's, do I plan on waiting to get the newest reference cards, that will have full block support.

I looked at the H440, and what kills it for me is all the screws. I like the push button door release, and tool free drive bays. I also like my BR drive for viewing and ripping. It's either getting stealth treatment or I am going to mod it and put it in the bottom bay of the 900D.
