Measurement

KillerWolf17

How do I measure a case fan, I have the stock one that sounds like a jet.

It will go on the back of my case, so I need to know the measurement in millimeters

 

thanks

just look up the fan size online or try to look up your cpu and find the size of the fan on the stock cooler

Fan sizes are measured diagonally. 

 

EDIT: Fan sizes are measured from top to bottom with the sizes that you're referencing.

It is. I looked at how Corsair measures their fans and you are correct when I looked at the values.
