You will most definitely need an actual centrifugal inline fan for this. Also, if you daisy chain tubes with one fan I recommend a booster for the additional heat load.

I would also recommend the larger fan. I installed the 110cfm fan in our 10 x 12 bath and if works great.

My build used a 65w AMD APU with a Noctua NH-U14S (one fan configuration), with a Corsair RM450 PSU (runs fanless under 40% load). I also swapped the case fans out for a Prolimatech PRO-BV14 and a CoolerMaster MegaFlow 200 in the front which were both mounted with rubber fan mounts. I dont use the mesh grill, and all heat goes out the back. I dont have a Graphics Card or an Optical drive, which are the two biggest producers of sound in most of my PCs, but from one foot away it is DEAD Silent. My loads max out at 100-125w, so theres not alot of need for air movement, but if you're looking for a quiet light-duty gaming machine or a silent HTPC (mine is both), then I recommend this case.

you cannot run the cool tube hood without a fan pulling air thru it and for a 5x6 i would either run a 1000w or (perferably) 2 of these

I believe it is 3,670 CFM. It doesn't tell you that on the pamphlet that comes with the fan but I looked it up! Trust me this fan blows beautifully!!

That depends if you need the full 435cfm. The filter will reduce the cfm after it has done it's job which causes drag. So in retrospect running the fan at full speed or slightly under is recommended if that is the amount of air you need. So to put it a little bit more simple, your phresh filter will probably reduce about 100 cfm from the power of your fan. If you ran you fan at half power you would have a total of about 117.50 cfm. I recommend full speed or a little lower. If that's not an option, buy an 8" one, that's what I did!

No, this is a piece of garbage fan. Buy the NEW HYDROFARM ACDF4 Active Air 4 Inch Hydroponic In-Line Fan 165 CFM w/ Brackets Sold by: VMInnovations

You need atlest 5 CFM at 90psi you can have lower then 5 but doesn't perform at full potential.

This fan is amazing. If you go to the CAN website you can find the specs. I used it to cool a 400W HPS light and circulate air in a 3 X 3 X 6 foot tent. It did this on the lowest speed with ease. I have the 6" Max Fan and it is first rate.

Thanks for your question! According to the manufacturer's website the CFM of this fan is 740 / 600. I hope this helps!

It sounds like you are building something heavy-duty. The largest one I have built used a 750 watt. I found the engineering first class and the performance solid. I would buy it again. Built like a gamer, it's still running well after two years. On a smaller machine, the tickler starting circuit failed and they sent me a new PSU, postage paid. Your UPS needs to produce a full sine wave for it, is all. That's what Thermaltake told me, anyway. Good Luck.

You should actually look for the amp draw on all fans. The higher amps the higher out of pocket exspense. I would say you have it backwards. It takes more amps to move more cfm.(Cubic feet per min)

You could always add extra fans in your case to help with airflow, but this card was designed for high heat, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Something I do to keep the temp down under heavy load is run MSI Afterburner and set a custom "Fan Speed Curve". The fan will get pretty loud but my card usually stays around 70 C and runs smooth as butter.

I don't think you should have a problem, but check what the CFM needed for this particular item and if not, move up to the full horse powered item just to be safe.

The built in fan has a "boost" feature that is really useful for maintaining a comfortable temperature while playing games on high settings. However, the fan makes a lot of noise while in boost mode. The fan in its normal state seems suitable for running games on normal settings or on high settings for short periods of time, but after a while, the core temperatures start to rise to uncomfortable ranges. With that said, I haven't really tried to push the temperatures to their limits nor have I experienced any crashes or issues due to overheating.

I have 2 of these fans. I tested both on lawn chairs in full sun to see what kind of vibrations they would have. The bigger 30 watt ran the same motor faster but both had very little vibration. I don't hear them in my house.

The reason I replaced by 20 year old fans was poor performance and/or extreme noise. These were definitely an improvement, but I cannot say I can detect the higher CFM performance. Easy to install though.
