Are the mounting holes in the same locations as the Fan-tastic fan? That is, can I mount this on a Fan-tastic fan as easily as on a MaxxAir?

I don't think it makes any difference as you don't touch any part of the fan. My installation was with a Fan-tastic fan factory installed. Nothing changes with the fan or lid. 4 holes drilled at the specified locations mount the MaxxAir over any fan installation. Super easy to complete, awesome vent.

This case comes with the mounting holes and grilles in place for 120mm fans. They are meant to be mounted inside the case. You may be able to modify the case, or drill new mounting holes for the fans to create a top-mount for the radiator. The case also has rear knock-outs for coolant lines. Good luck.

The base is fixed...no holes...that's a new one on me...mount a fan to a wall...why? If the base was mounted to a wall the fan would blow straight down????????????????

You will have to mount onto something but mounting brackets are very flexible. this is a great fan, still going strong after a couple years of hard use and love the thermostat option.

I've actually done this swap already, since the stock fan on my 212 ate it. As long as you harvest the old mounting hardware, you're in good shape, just be sure to mount it with the same airflow direction as original.

Yes, by pulling the rotation pin. It's the same mechanism that most fans use

Hi Red, I have mine mounted in the bottom of my Corsair case as there is a filter across the area and i draw the air in, but yes that's what its made for! !Just watch which direction the blades turn after you connect it to the MOBD. If its blowing the wrong way turn off the computer, remove the fan connection from the MOBD and turn it over and remount it and reconnect it to the motherboard! Be sure to ground yourself by touching the power supply case before you touch the Motherboard. That will remove any stactic charge that may have built up on your body! I tell you this as some forget and don't and mess up a part of the board. Simple Precaution !

Mine does not quite match the current picture on Amazon, which shows two fan grills with mounting holes. Mine has a single grill without no screw holes. I don't often use discreet video cards on my business computer builds so I have no use for a side fan, but I do appreciate the large fan up front to move in cool air over the hard drives. - The I.T.

I have the case and the fan. They work well together. The only place to mount the fan is on the top panel.

Hole pattern and size are the same as 120 mm fan. You can use fan screws to attach it to a 120 mm fan. Distance between holes are 105mm and holes are 5mm.

The fan on top only looks like there are no holes. I have a 120mm fan on top with the screws in the four corners. They just didn't bother changing the pattern for the holes but they do line up with a 120mm fan.

Yes, it will line up with the 140mm fans' screw holes, unless your fans have a 120mm mounting pattern like http://www.amazon.com/Prolimatech-Ultra-Vortex-Mounting-Pattern/dp/B00B1WQ4VA/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1381095474&sr=8-2&keywords=140mm+fan+with+120mm+mount . If it doesn't have the 120mm mount pattern, this filter should lineup properly.

If the vent is the standard 14" x14" vent, a fan does not make a difference. I have installed the Maxxair vent cover on two vents with fans. The Maxxair is designed for the standard 14X14" vents. The Maxxair connectors are mounted to the vent sides; a fan would not, or should not get in the way. The holes are drilled from the outside, on top of the roof.

This is a GREAT FAN! However, I DO NOT KNOW if it can be mounted. I suppose it could if you had the correct mounting equipment but I just can't say for certain. I can say this fan is VERY GOOD QUALITY and definitely worth the money!

I installed on a hunter fan and it works fine. The finish is not a perfect match but was close enough for me.

Hi am sorry but I have not gotten around to mounting it yet. I would think it would depend if you Already have fans at the top of your rack. Sorry I wish I could of been more help.
