fan recommendations and case questions.

okay, the case I am going to be getting is the HAF 912, and I have a few questions.

1. Is the HAF on the side engraved (maybe there is a better word), or is it painted on, like in the powder coat?

2. Fans. What do you all suggest for fans to fill up all the available mount points for it? I want to keep the airflow fairly high, but I also don't want to have a Junkers Jumo 004 sitting on my desk. what about LEDs? I think I am going to paint the flat areas (not the raised) blue with auto paint, so I might get some blue LEDs to match. So keep that in mind with your recommendations.
 
1. Are you talking about the Letters HAF on the side of the case? If so, they are not engraved or raised. I haven't had my panels on and some of it is already scratched off. I do plan on putting the panels on once everything is done.

2. I believe you can mount 2 -120 mm fans on top or 1- 200mm. Not sure how much noise that will bring though. I may try 2 - 120's and see how it helps.

Edit:: Man, I have to start reading posts twice from now on.
 
yes. I was asking about the letters. And okay, that is noted. I might do a 2 tone red and blue if it looks good. I modeled it up with a light blue in paint, but am not really happy with it.

http://www.coolermaster-usa.com/landing/haf912/home.php?page=cooling says it can house 6 120s or 4 120s and 2 200s or 3 120s a 140 and 2 200s. I would think that the 120s would be most likely to have quiet operation. Really I don't need silent or near it. Just quiet enough that I can't hear it over the video or game thats running. Maybe I am worrying about nothing.
 
Not bad, I like the idea. If my case wasn't directly up against my desk on that side, I would actually paint mine. I still might, who knows.
