Which side is intake?

[Raddude]

I have an NZXT FN-200RB and and FN-120RB but I don't know which side is intake on the 200RB. There are no arrows. Also, there are no spirals for the screws in the holes for either. I am confused. Please help!

The front of the fan usually suck in air and the back usually pushes air out

[Raddude]

But which is the front? Is that the side with the supports?

[C_Mike]

This side would be the Intake

Thank you! And what do I do about there not being pre-drilled screw holes? They are just smooth holes in the plastic

there are screws that come with your fan or case (or both) that cut into the plastic and screw in the screw

Those are the screw holes....

But how do I get the screws in? They are smooth not spiraled

use a nut that fits the screw. You use a rubber washer to help with vibration. Thread the screw through the fan into the case then opposite side of metal place scrrw to hold it all up if this doesn't work get a thick rubber band thread it through and tie knots that are bigger thab holes, get ghe knots as tight as possible, cut them when you want to take the off. You can also buy these rubber pull through things.

you use self tapping screws

[blackadder]

you use self tapping screws

this too, they can be hard to get all the way through so do it before you put on your fans.

And after ALL THAT...... the fan is 193 mm not 200mm

tap holes into your case if you want to put it in. Man that sucks

[Raddude]

I totally just ghetto rigged it. Thanks everyone for your help!!

I have a quick follow up: NZXT is sending me a new fan and said that they had 193 mm fans that they shipped with a specific old case that got mixed up. Thank you all for the help!
