I'd probably go with the 900. I'd take cooler temps over looks any day. Besides, the 900 isn't too bad looking either.

1 last question.
Should I buy products that are retail (with fans)?? Reason I'm asking is, if I have retail, then it comes with fans. Are those fans any good?

How many heat sink should I get? Just 1? and What kind should I get?

What happens if I use like a regular string or w/e instead? Is there really a difference?

Also If I do decide on buying those zip ties, how many would I need to buy?


One last thing, Will this slim samsung dvd burner fit into an antec 900?

Slimline dvd/cd drives are usually used for laptops. And if you decided to use one in your 900, you would have to make a custom cutout in one of the front panels for it to fit. It's usually not worth the time and trouble to do what you want, unless you just really like the look.

You would also have to do some mods to your wiring to get it to work.

Zip ties are all the same... however many you need...

None of your links work.

Is it really worth getting 3x 120 nexus fans? I herd Antec 900 fans were really nice. Also Nexus fans don't have size 200mm??

Also anyone know any sites that sell these zip ties? How many packs should I get If I plan on getting Antec 900?

Thank you

The Nexus fans are very quiet. The Antec fans are not. It's up to you if you use them or not.

Do you live near any kind of home improvement or electronics store? If so they all sell the zip ties. Just go in and ask for them.

20 or so zip ties should do you. Get the small ones, they are about 3 inchs long, and a few that are 6 inches long, that should cover everything.
