Merry X-Mas,

 

I got this cougar itx case and I am thinking of putting fans in the bottom. Problem ist that my Strix 980 is too fat for normal 25mm Fans. Anyone know some silent 120 x ~14mm Fans? 

 

Please don't look at the cables, I had to take it apart like 3 times.

I found this fan but it is 15mm thick:

You could give it a try...

 

do you think it would even make sense? The gpu is covering alot of the bottom, but on the other hand the fans would still force more air into the case.

If it would FORCE more air in that is bad cos it will strain your fan. Your GPU is at the bottom of the case and is blowing air out through that vent. putting a fan there would be useless because the GPU fan is already blowing air out
