superxero044 Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Incorrectly assuming the extra holes by the rear fan were mean to mount a 140MM fan I went ahead and ordered a fancy 140MM noiseblocker to replace the original fan. OBviously I was unable to get it installed. It seems like it should fit if I just drilled some holes. Does anyone have experience in this? I am afraid of messing up my case. Does anyone have some advice? Will there be little shrapnel everywhere? Is it not going to be flush at all? If it is going to be a huge problem and not worth it I might order a noctua that can better mount in this case but I think it would clash with everything else. Thanks!

Fan O Water Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I'd measure the space and if big enough you can mount this 140 mm fan in the 120mm holes. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835185158 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rognin Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 You could get a plastic shroud to adapt to the 120mm spacing. Or install the 140 on the top grill, get a second one and have two exhausts at the top plus a 120mm multiframe by (((NB)))... =D PM sent for link to a shroud.

superxero044 Posted October 18, 2011 Author Share Posted October 18, 2011 Yeah problem is I already spent 30$ on a fan. I think if I can't sell my fan that shroud would be the best bet. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginut Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I don't believe the case was designed for a 140 exhaust fan, however the Noctua NF-P14FLX 140MM fits quite nicely in there :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WebMaximus Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I don't believe the case was designed for a 140 exhaust fan, however the Noctua NF-P14FLX 140MM fits quite nicely in there :) Sorry to wake up an old thread but were you able to mount that Noctua 140mm fan without any modifications to your 650D? I'm currently looking for a new rear exhaust fan myself for my 650D case and would be great if I could use a 140mm fan instead of a 120mm fan. Even better would be if I could find a suitable 140mm fan that also has PWM so I could control it using Corsair Link that comes with my new H100i.
