120mm Fan thinner than 25mm?

[Solema]

Hi All,
I recently purchased an MGE-Viper ATX case and it has mounts in the front for a 120mm intake fan. The problem is, there's no way to actually get the fan into the space allotted for it. I thought I recalled seeing slim 120mm fans before but I can't find any. Can anyone help me out here? I'd prefer red LED fans, but will settle for anything at this point.

I think you're out of luck. I've never even seen a slim 92mm. There are 15mm thick 80mm fans around, none of which are particularly quiet at 12v. I got some slim 80mm fans from Directron.....they are used in a small hard drive cooler ($4.50).

How thick are the Zalman ones that go onto the heatpipe cooler?

I recently took out a slimmer then usual antec 120mm case fan(booklet mentioned noisekiller?) out of an slk2650-bqe. It was at least 30-40% thinner then the usual fans I use. I can't for the love of me find it in all these stacks of boxes, but I know it's around here somewhere.

If you can find it, can you measure the depth for me? And might you be willing to sell it to me?

If the description of this 120mm fan is to be believed, it's only 5mm thick:

5mm thick fan

There's one left in stock as I write this.

Got to be a typo. Woah if this is true!

Half a centimeter....right. That thing would break if it were turned on.
Thinnest 120mm I've ever seen was 25mm.
