About only one actually. http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16835185020 Scythe KAMA BAY SCKB-1000BK 120mm 120mm Fan for 5.25" System Cooling - Retail


I'm looking at putting more positive pressure in my case, and the only place to add inflow really is the bays up front. I am using a Thermaltake Armor series case. I have one 120mm up front and would like another.

I am running dual opty's, hopefully sli soon. I also was looking at using teh fan to direct more airflow towards the chipset since it runs so warm. Or I might get a spot cooler for that. Exither way I need some help locating some 5.25 stuff.

I think the Kama Bay is one of the only 5.25" bay fans. Another option is to ghetto-rig it if you have mesh covers (which I'm pretty sure the Armor has).

You may be able to get a 120mm fan bracket from http://www.aerocool.us - one comes with the Masstige (pronounced like "prestige") case and three or more other models based on the same internal design (Coolview, Zero Degree, etc.). It should fit in most cases right behind the bay filler plates. Doesn't come with a fan, so you can hang whatever you want on it. It's not fancy, so it should be cheap - say: "I want to get another for my Masstige, how much are they." Who knows, they might just send you one for free to avoid the paperwork... Or you could cook up your own "social engineering" scam. But you didn't hear that from me...

You'll have to phone them as they have no e-store function at the site.
