should i have a side fan?

Ive got the same case
Beautiful case
Cools excitlent to

Id say save the money on the 92mm on the side.and pick up 2 good 120mm for front and back

Thats what ive done.and its doing a good job
 
Ya.it comes with two decent fans from TT

Im suggestining yes maybe you could replace one of them with a higher CFM?

Thats what i did.and it made for good results.

Sometimes a side fan just disrupts the airflow in your case, and makes no difference whatsoever
 
Well, i didnt wanna make a new thread. But I want to get a new case. Should i get this case or the tsunami dream?
The soprano dx has a 140mm front and 120 mm back fan with no side fan (but apparently you can fit an 80mm fan in the side if needed) and has an e-sata port on the top.
The tsunami has two 120mm fans, frotn and back, and comes with a 90 mm fan pre-installed. It has a firewire port on the top. (front port)

The soprano case is an inch short but an inch deeper than the tsunami. other than that they basically have the same dsign. They even have the same price. Which case do you think I should buy? I'm mostly concerned with what the other person up top said about the side fans soemtimes disrupting air flow. The tsunami has been around for a while with that design and has been rated an excellent overclocking case. Would that case have actually been better without it's sidefan? Should i just get a soprano and get a largerheatsink/cpu fan? (the soprano seems to have taken out its side fan primarily for larger gpus coming out.. i dont think it was because of better cooling. and i think the larger front fan was to try to subsitutue for that.)
 
well if ur fraid of disrupting air flow mayb u shouldnt get the side fan then...i prob wont end up getting one...

i chose the soprano cuz i thouhgt it looked cool and it does and cuz i wanted an esata connection thing....but ya those were my preferences...
