The Fans

While it may seem like something un-needed, but a fan can really help a case lower its temperature. This is a great thing to buy if you happened to have bought a case with only one fan. A single exhaust in the back of the case can really make a difference, but an intake cooling off your hard drive can help keep your components running longer. A better back fan also helps improve airflow throughout the case, further cooling down those hot components.

You don't want a fan that is too loud, however you don't want one that doesn't blow hardly any air. This is why I have chosen the Xigmatek XSF-F1251. This fan moves 72 CFM of air, which is a lot, while being under 24 dBA. Chances are you wont ever hear the fan with it being that quiet.
