Hi all,

I'm going to be purchasing a Bitfenix Prodigy M fairly soon and I was looking at different fan configurations I could have on the bottom of the case. I originally wanted to put one 230mm fan in the bottom (Bitfenix Spectre Pro 230mm) but after contacting the supplier about getting a 230mm fan filter, he recommended me to get two 120mm fans instead (Corsair AF Quiet, Bitfenix Spectre Pro or NZXT FZ). So I was just wondering which setup would give me the best cooling performance. Just for convenience, here are the links to the 4 different fans mentioned.

Well... which are you favoring more? sound over performance or the other way?

I'd prefer performance as long as it doesn't make my computer sound like a reference R9 290. I'll probably be pulling air through the bottom of the system. I do want to overclock both my CPU and GPU, hence the need for performance.

The first one seems POWERFUL! so that's my choice.

Yeah, that's what I thought when I compared the specs of the fans. Is there any reason to get two 120mm fans?

If you want to have it kinda like the air flow to be spread out more.
