Xaser 3 a Tornado fans....

[RuneScaper]

Can any1 tell me for sure if the Tornado 80mm fans fit in where the Xaser 3 has its fans(the 7 of them).

Yes, I believe they make thin and thick tornados (25mm vs 38mm.)

Make sure to get 7 of them though, any less than that and you wouldn't have hearing aids... er, I mean, sufficient cooling.

If you've not heard one, then you probably don't have a good idea of what a loud irritating noise is. This is the worst thing I can think of.

50+ dB? And that's 50+dB of basically bearing and turbulence noise...that's insane. Imagine a souped up ricer revving up a few feet away from you.
Now put that in your PC.

Well, first I'd have to ask: what makes a fan good?
Nobody with a decent, or even half-way decent case needs a Tornado for anything. Just about any case fan will do as good a job cooling, or close enough not to matter.
