What size fan will fit the back of this case?

Newegg.com - Computer Parts, PC Components, Laptop Computers, Digital Cameras and more!

It's a Xion black solaris 403 btw

It comes with an 80mm fan, but it also has the holes for a larger fan. Is there a way to tell if those holes will fit a 120mm fan? Im a noob at anything computers lol

Yes, it looks like it will fit a 120mm fan.

No, it only goes up to 92mm
Read the reviews before buying...
I wouldn't buy it if it were me...

For that price you can get much better cases...

yep, JP is right, when I looked at it I first thought 92mm, but read the specs for the case, says 80mm, but looks like there are 2 sets of mounting holes, so 92mm would be the largest.

I can vouch for the CM Elite 330 he posted above, its not pretty looking, but it'll do the trick, has 120mm front and rear, and a vent on lower side panel for video cards, as well as vent and shroud for CPU (can be removed easily)

currently using an Elite 335 model, for my 2nd PC.

Had the Elite 330 mentioned earlier this year for my spare Quad core parts, but sold the whole thing to a friend.

one thing though, on the Elite cases, it you may want to replace the stock Cooler master 120mm fan, the one I have, I moved the fan to the front, since I installed an Arctic Cooling 120mm suspended frame fan to the rear, and the CM 120mm is pretty loud sounding.

I recently ordered an Enermax Enlobal fan for the front, to replace the CM model.

my entire Thermaltake Armor case, with its Front and rear 120mm's, rear 92mm, PSU Fan, CPU fan (120mm), and Video card (GTX 285), is 1/3 or so of the volume level the other system is in the Elite 335 with that stock fan.
