What kind of fan did you buy for this board? Does it need a specific type?

I assume you are asking about CPU fans, I had a 2U case so I bought the intel CPU fan.the model is BXSTS200C.

I bought this fan http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007HJAM50/ref=oh_details_o00_s02_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 used it in a rack mounted case with fans in front and back of case and helped direct airflow out the back. Any socket 2011 fan will work.

Hi Neil, if you refer to case ventilation I used the Thermaltake Overseer RX II which already includes fans. For the processors I used Coolermaster TPC 812 CPU cooler.

Like any other motherboard, it needs a socket 2011 fan. I used the Dynatron R17, and on an other system I'm using the Intel consumer fan for socket 2011. Consider the airflow in your motherboard also, I prefer the Dynatron fan because it pusher air front to back.

Really depends on the case you buy, any lga 2011 cooler will work. I bought a cooler master heat pipe one that stands about 5-6 inches off the main board. That may have been excessive as it interferes with some of the ram slots, however I have 32 GB on board with many slots open so it's not been an issue. The tower/fan cooler I bought are very quiet, where as a 1u cooler may be very noisy, but short. Look into 2u or 3u size coolers.

I bought this fan Intel Thermal Solution Cooling Fan for E5-2600 Processors BXSTS200C used it in a rack mounted case with fans in front and back of case and helped direct airflow out the back. Any socket 2011 fan will work.

These fans aren't PWM controlled, so you would need a separate fan controller. If you would rather have PWM fans they aren't much more in price than non PWM fans, you should be able to find some cheaper than these.

If I remember my case came with one fan. I suggest buying 4 120 mm fans and the NZXT fan controller

Forgot to mention, the case fan is quite loud so I would either replace it with a quiet one or get a simple fan speed controller. This is what i got.

It comes with a stock fan, it gets pretty loud at times, I will recommend an aftermarket cooler/fan for overclocking

I'm sorry, but I don't have the knowledge on your existing fan model to see if it will work. You may want to contact the vendor SupplyEdge. Take care

I don't know. But that noisy fan is the ONLY thing keeping this from being the perfect case. I'm responding with the hope that someone will post a link to a replacement fan.

The key will likely be do you have enough ventilation...It does not include a thermostat, so something with one might be a better idea.It does have a much stronger motor than most permanently mounted fans that I've seen...

I recommend noctua quiet series fans (the newest ones) in a pull configuration. The have a 140mm fan in the back in a push configuration. Make sure you have an aftermarket CPU cooler

I got mine on amazon. Just search this fan and down the page from item it asks you if you wanna buy extra stuff . It should be there, thats where got mine. I hope this helps :0)

Just so you know, it is a pull string fan. if it is a low vaulted ceiling, or you're ok with a set speed then they make kits for most pole mounted fans.

Cooling fans are sized based upon the socket type of the motherboard. You will need to lookup your particular Dimension model number to find out what the board type is. Or just open the case and look on the motherboard with a flash light. Once you get the model number of the motherboard, you can google it to find what socket type it is. Once you get the socket type, see if you have a match with the types compatible with this cooling fan.

I am sorry... I purchased this fan for a locker room at a Fitness Center I had managed (years ago). I suggest checking the owners manual for contact information of the manufacturer or using good ole' google.

Yes, it comes with a stock fan. If you are planning on over clocking, the 212 evo is probably the best you can get for the money. There are more expensive fans, but the 212 evo gets you the best bang for your buck in my opinion.

Wish I could help but I do not know what the difference is. Sorry!!! What is the make and model number of your fan?

No problem at all. I think the problem with the other customer was installation. Make sure you follow the directions. It's a good quality fan, you won't be disappointed.

That I can't answer, but I can tell you NOT to purchase this fan. It came all broken and is for the most part plastic. Very cheap. Try this fan. I purchased it after the cheap one arrived: GeekTEK USB Retro 4" Mini Desktop Fan - Assorted Colors
