I'm sure some of you are also excited about this case coming around in a week or two. I was wondering if anyone knew what size case fans that case can hold.

 

Anyone heard something about that in interviews or something?

 

Or any spec sheets around yet?

 

Thanks in advance!

not much information available

http://www.corsair.com/en/landing/air240

 

but it does specify that it has pre-spaced holes for 240 radiator on top, bottom and front if you are using a mini itx board you add 240 rads on front and bottom.

This means 6 - 120mm fan

 

if you are using a micro atx board with dual gpu you would only have space for front rad.

I’m curious about CPU cooler sizes. I was going to get an Air 540, but when I saw this I changed my mind. Unfortunately I already picked up a Noctua NH-D15 which I’m now worried won’t fit in the 240…

it might fit as I think this case is a little bigger than the 250d, though it may also depend on whether you would be using micro or mini itx. BUt still the specs are a mystery...

I’ll be using a micro ATX board. My concern is mainly because the front panel fan maximum size has shrunk from 140 to 120, which leads me to believe that the “depth” (side panel to motherboard tray) of that side has been reduced; reducing the maximum CPU cooler height. The NH-D15 has 140mm fans, so I’m really getting worried… Do Corsair reps ever post here to answer questions?

the air 240 size

397mm x 260mm x 320mm (L x W x H)

 

and max cpu height

about 120mm

 

 

In Mini ITX, with the case in standard Air 540 orientation, the two 240mm rads would be front and bottom.

 

In Micro ATX, the extended length of the board takes up the spot that the bottom radiator would occupy in Mini ITX.

 

Yes, you can fit two 120mm fans on top regardless of motherboard.

 

Fan locations:

Front 2 x 120mm (radiator spaced, greater than 50mm of room depending on GPU)

Top 2 x 120mm (25mm depth)

Bottom 2 x 120mm (52mm space in Mini ITX)

Rear 2 x 80mm

Solid side panel - 1 x 120mm (optional for HDD cooling)
