Question 1

how loud will this be with all fans running on high?

Accepted Answer

Before I answer, I want to mention that only the 2 top fans are connected to the low/med/high switch. I have mine on high & I can't hear them at all. Even when it's totally quiet in my room, I can still barely hear any of them running.

Question 2

Some people are saying the fans connect via 4 pin is this true? Are all the fans powered this way,or are they powered by the standard Molex connectors?

Accepted Answer

All the 5 fans have the standard 3pin connector to motherboard header (no PWM control) spliced to a molex connector, meaning you can use either method to connect any of the fans. The fan controller can control 2 fans for sure, don't remember if it can control 3, and the connection to the fan controller is through molex.

Question 3

does this case have red LED lighting?

Accepted Answer

Yes and No.

No because the case itself doesn't have Red LED Lighting, but the fans pre-installed in the front of the case are clear white (when turned off), but when turned on they shine a deep red.

Question 4

How well will these fans move air? I don't want to spend extra on other fans.

Accepted Answer

trustme, there is more fans then you will need. it has two on top one on back and 2 in front. Top and front ones are very effective. Plus you power supply has a fan, and your cpu cooler has one. If you add a video card with a fan too, you will have a total of 8 fans, which is more then enough. There is a fan speed controller for the top two fans. The options are off, low, and high. I use low and it is more then i need.

Question 5

How many fans do I need to connect to the motherboard? Or are they all already connected?

Accepted Answer

The top two fans are connected to the fan speed switch on the front panel and thus need only a power connection.  That leaves the back fan and the two front fans.  In my case, I hooked the back fan up to one motherboard connection and then used a y-cable to connect the two front fans to a second motherboard connection.

So in total, I used 2 motherboard connections and one direct power connection.

Question 6

How much space is there behind the motherboard tray for cable management?

Accepted Answer

There is 3/8" on the back panel or cover for cable management.

Question 7

A review stated there're 3 fan speed Low, Medium and High.  I can only set it to Low and High, when I switch to the middle the two top  fans stop spinning.  They're connected via Molex.  Is my case defective ?

Thanks

Accepted Answer

Their website concerning this product  says "With one fan-speed adjusting switch, can control 2 fans at the same time"
That is really vague, but all I can find.
Mine does the same thing, but I always leave my fan switch on high . . . .leaning on the side of deaf so sound/noise is not an issue!

Question 8

is the case made out of metal or plastic??

Accepted Answer

The sides of the case as well as the main frame on the bottom are made of a very thin metal, the top is a single piece of plastic that covers the fan housing.  The front panels are also made of plastic.  If you do buy this case and need to move it, I suggest picking it up from the bottom and not using the top as a grip for anything, as the single piece comes off very easily.

Question 9

What are the rpm s of the fans?

Accepted Answer

Question 10

would a EVGA 600B 600W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply fit in this case?

Accepted Answer
