Antec 300 Fan solutions?

EccentricalAce · 05-24-2010, 11:24 PM

Hello, so, straight to the point here, I got an Antec Three Hundred case, which isn't what I originally thought it was, so clear me on this if im wrong, but the Three Hundred Illusion comes with fans for the front two slots? I think my sister got this at Fry's, so does anybody know if we can return this possibly and give 10 dollars more for the Illusion? Or if Antec sells the same fans on the Illusion seperately?
If not, I'd prefer to find Antec fans that are at least similar to them. Thanks for any help.

You don't need to get the specific Antec brand, you could just buy two LED 120 fans for about $25 and stick em in.

Yes, I know, but the sizes are smaller than average I think, and I also very much like the current TriCool fans they have.
Im most intersted in seeing if I can return the case, I havent put anything in it yet, havent turned any of it on, but I did screw in a HDD but thats out now.

As long as you have the box and are within the return policy's timeframe I don't see why you wouldn't be able to return it.

you can buy antec fans, ive seen them on ebay and have bought the tricool ones from ebay as i now have my 300 fitted 5 fans, the size on the front is 120mm

all the fans on the Antec 300 are 120mm aside from the 140mm on top.

Yes antec fans are very easily available. You would be looking for the antec pro series fans for best airflow, but the 120 mm fans are very standard sizes and anything will work

I own the 1200, and use rosewill cheapy fans, have some thermaltake thunderblades, and antec pro series, all of which fit.

If you want black ones or just specific stuff, try to search the spec sheets for the case and it will tell you what fans they used, you can find those on newegg once you find out what you need.
