Can someone please tell me how thick the window is in mm. I'm at work and don't have access right now. I need to know what length the screws need to be before I order.

the thickness of the window is 3mm

Nice marcnaz !!

Was their a drop in temps on your cards with the 200mm side exhaust fan?

In regards to the side exhaust fan i reckon it mainly keeps the case cooler. Its the two 140mm front intake fans for the gpus that really improved things.

Although i'm sure the 200 does help a bit (ie: cooler case = cooler everything inside)

 

Also the top rad is set to intake - so the 200 helps there also.

 

Ps.: I hooked up a voltmeter to the fan controller power out and noticed it topped out at 9V (high) & 6V (low).The yellow wire seems to send out a 12V signal to just turn on the leds.

So connected it (with a y-splitter to another fan with rpm signal) to the MB and the yellow wire to the led switch and works like a charm (Lights + auto fan speed control).

When the 200mm is hooked up to the MB its noticeably louder and pushes out some serious air.

Gday,

 

Just thought i'd share what i ended up doing.

 

Worked out pretty good. Easily dropped max. gpu temp. by a good 10-15C (especially the top one - now both cards are within 3C of each other at 100% load). And case is 20C cooler than my old 650d.

 

With the fan on the side don't really need any lighting IMO.

hey,

 

can someone please find out specs. on the 200mm fans included in the case.

im getting conflicting info. from various web sites.

 

thermaltake v71 case fan - blue led 600-800 rpm 13-15dBA [ fan model - tt 2030 ; code - a2030l12s] no manufacturing date.

level 10 gt case - multi colour led (colour shift) - same specs

chaser mk-1 case - same as above

 

and 200mm thermaltake PURE 20cm fan - model no. and code are the same but specs look different. [800 rpm - 15dBA VS. 800 rpm - 28dBA]

{ http://www.thermaltake.com/products-model.aspx?id=C_00002235 }

 

Ok few questions -

1.are the fans capable of changing colour?

2.same specs as the PURE 20cm?

3.why can't i read rpm signal when connected to mb?

4.what is the voltage output from the fan controller when on high?

 

sorry bout all the questions, but i just need to get my facts straight before i sort out my airflow config.

 

thanks

or

 

 

i found these guys that had pretty good results.

Hey guys

 

Im going to be buying a v71 one of these days and I wanted to know if anyones put in a fan on the side panel (as exhaust) since I currently have crossfire windforce gpus.

Would a a71 side panel fit on a v71??

 

thanks
