Neat unit, hope it does what you want it to... Also an interesting thread, I may chime in on it, and at the very least, I'm now following it.

While I'm not thrilled with axial fans, I think it's the only way I can go with my setup, at least without doing some really odd duct work. (although if I find my case temps get to high it might be a way to deal with getting the rad air out of the case...)

The problem is that any of the centrifugal blowers effectively do a 90* turn in the airflow, and I want my flow to go in a straight line. I'm planning in terms of two fans sucking in through the rad and pressurizing the case, with two more fans at the exhaust ports helping pull the hot air out if needed. The rad and associated fans will be at the front of the case, but I'm hoping that pulling through the rad and some filtering material will muffle them pretty well.

I'm having a bit of a dillema on fan choice, I want quiet, but I need a pretty fair volume of air movement. Initially I was thinking Papst, as they are supposedly the quietest fans, but some of the rad airflow test info suggests that they do a bad job of pulling through the rad. Panaflows were my second choice, but they also seem to do a fairly bad job. I may do some poking around to see what Comair-Rotron has to offer, their name seems to keep popping up all over, and at least the technical end of their website seems impressive.
