I've ordered mine aswell alrdy :D. Seems best option for me, swapping fan is easy, so best silencing option. I'm probably gonna order one of those 92mm fan on 80mm frame for more airflow with lower noise.

Where does it say it can fit a 120mm fan? It looks to me that the biggest fan it can fit is an 80mm.

Well the V1 was kinda lackluster . . . as in it wasn't exactly much better (if better at all) than the VF700Cu or Silencers depending on what kind of GPU it was used on . . .

3 HP vs. 2 HP may be significant though . . .

The V1 is great for cooling, but it has a horrible mounting system. So awkward to install that took me 5 tries to get it right and chiped 2 of the corners on the thermal die at the same time. Plus it wobbles even when the screws are fully tightened.

Yeah I've heard that the installation is a pain in the arse. There goes me buying one of these things.

They should fit the Quadro as the mounting mechanism hasn't changed from the Geforce line. Only the software did. AFAIK.

But then again, you didn't state which Quadro series you wanted to use.
