will the Scythe S-Flex 120mm fans fit the P182?

[Toadster]

I'd like to REALLY get my P182 quieter with more air flow, I notice that the Antec Tri-Cool fans are quiet at low speed - but don't move as much air as the Scythe

good deal? -> http://www.coolerguys.com/sff21.html

specs on the Antec Tri-Cool are here -> http://www.antec.com/pdf/flyers/TriCool.pdf

so if i get the 1600 speed fans, wil the motherboard be able to throttle them all the way back to silent mode?

what does whether the motherboard can throttle fans down have to do whether the fans fit the case?

of course they fit the case, they are 120mm fans hello

i guess i haven't really dug into teh Antec coolers - i wasn't sure if the 3-speed setting switch was part of the case, or part of the fans...

its part of the fan.

the tri-cools are pretty good.

fyi the one in the bottom chamber has more depth than standard 120mm fans to provide more airflow.

FYI - that "more depth than standard" is not true for the P182 or late versions of the P180. They stopped shipping 38mm thick fans and went with 25mm due to the complaints of not enough room for PSU cables.

ahhh. i got my p180 in january and it had the 38mm fan. did not know that.
