Unlike 120 140mm fans a 200mm fan occupied the full width of the case which made thickness concerns more prevalent.

Right off the bat i am pretty much restricted to full towers because of the size of 200mm fans.
If you ve got a big case and need to move as much air as possible through it then you ll probably need to be looking at the monstrous megaflow 200 which is the best 200mm case fan for keeping big cases cool.
In addition one of the 200mm fans needs replacing.
The costs wouldve been astronomical and fit in nearly no cases.
I recently bought a pc built in a thermaltake core v1 case runs great except the 200mm front case fan is super loud compared to my old pc which ran on 120mm fans.
I have a thermaltake v1 mini itx with a 970 i5 etc.
While 120mm case fans are pretty much the standard these days there are other options both smaller and larger.
The only case size limitation is it has to be under 27cm in width.
Wiring up a bunch of case fans can not only be tedious but all those extra cables strung about could start to interfere with its function.
I have recently purchased the cooler master h500 as well and have been bummed by the lack of 200mm radiator options to pair with one of the 2 200mm intake fans.
The lian li.
Only cooler master fans have the right frame structure to allow top mounting in the haf x i e.
The i5 is cooled by a h55 120mm aio cooler and i have one more 120mm case fan rubber stickied to the roof to pull air out but my favourite thing about the case is the giant 200mm fan bang up front pulling air into and across the whole unit.
Is the mismatched fans not an issue with a push pull configuration.

Whoa there really is a subreddit for everything.
Best 200mm pc fan.
Mf200r rgb megaflow 200 etc.
Noctua 200mm fans can only be mounted in the front and on the side panel.
Most cases that would accept a 200mm fan tended not to allow for the thickness for both a hex and fan.
I m going through the rma process right now and hopefully it goes well but i ll probably replace the fans myself and bypass the fan controller all together if i have to be without my case for an extended amount of time.
While at nzxt we tried to plan a 200mm liquid cooler.
