120mm Fan

I have a raid max case with two 80mm fans in the front and two in the rear. Would it be better to cut a hole for a 120mm fan insted of the 80mm's?

Depends on the CFM of the fans. If the 2 80mms push around 48 CFM each, then 2 would equal around 96CFM total. But only 92mm fans push that much. Go with the 120 mm Fan. get a high CFM fan too, something around 90CFM+ (if noise isnt a problem then)

but if your like me, you can go over the bgmicro.com and buy this fan: http://bgmicro.com/prodinfo.asp?sid=...time_out=44:58

I have 3 of them and at 24V Dam do they make noise and push air. Im afraid my fingers gonna get chopped off.
