I'm looking for a 230mm and a 200m fan, I have a spectre pro green 230mm led right now, but I've recently thought about doing my case in a blue color instead of green, so if at all possible I'd really like them to be BLUE

 

Hopefully you guys' have dealt with this before, I've read tons of reviews+ recommendations about 120mm/140mm but not a lot is said about bigger ones :/

 

 

Second question was, I've seen some side panel's with a straight plexi glass panel, instead of the fan cutout in the plexiglass for the CoolerMaster Haf X, would that have an effect on graphics card temps if I got one of those? The stock side panel has a 200m fan pointing directly at the GPU"s

 

I'm getting dual Evga Gtx 780 ACX

I recently cut out my stock C70 side window, changed it to an acrylic window - I noticed up to 5'C drop on my ASUS DirectCUII 680s.

 

This is mainly due to the air pockets the holes creates, however now with flat window the air is being blown completely to the back of my case.

 

As for 200+ fans, bitfenix have some nice looking 200+ blue LED fans, I presume if your experience with spectre fans has been good - try that?

 

I personally trust dual 120mm/140mm than 1 giant 200mm+ if it's all possible - because there's rly no 200mm+ that have directed airflow.

 

I don't like the heat bleeding just because a fan is blowing air where I don't want it to go.

 

Hope that helps! :D
