I just purchased an Antec SLK3700BQE that uses 120mm fans front and rear. I'm in need of some recommendations for the front intake fan. Origianly wanted to go with the Panaflo but this case won't take a fan that thick in the front. Will be doing some OC on my AMD 2500. Looking at the Papst but don't know if it has enough airflow for this application.

Here you can find model no. Then just need to find a place to buy the one you want.

NMB

And svc.com has several 120x25 fans that should fit.

Another place that has one etech4sale.com .

Use this site to figure out by specifications which fan would fit your needs.
Id go with the NMB DC4710KL-B20 120x25mm, good choice between acceptable quiet noise levels and good airflow.

or you could get a panaflo 120x38 in the back and move the original antec to the front. i have a 120x38 h1a in the back and threw an evercool 120 in teh front, and im using the antec fan for my blowhole

Also, bgmicro.com has several. I bought one of two different types at only $3.75 each!. And one even comes with a chrome guard. They also have 100 ohm 2 Watt pots that should work fine to control 12V fans up to .4A or 5Watts - I ordered some of them too. Beware electro-tinkerers - visit bgmicro.com at your wallet's risk!

They use 4.69" instead of 120mm (which are really 119mm anyway) in some cases, and 1" instead of 25mm - just to make it easier for you.

Thanks for the responses. I decided to go with the antec pro for the front. I might change out the exhaust fan if I need to after I see how things run.

I got the same case. I'm using the one that came with it up front and my Delta (89cf) in the rear. It's on a tt fan controller that's set to low. I can't hear the system when it's on.

How to you like the case so far?
