Default best fans for my setup
so i need help picking what fans to grab for my setup because i need to pull more air through and drop the ambient temps (they can hit 65C).

im buying through memory express so please only thing they sell (il link).

i really don't know much about case fans, because i use to be a liquid cooling guy, so any help is appreciated!

120mm fans in Canada at Memory Express

also if possible i need to find a drive bay fan because my case is meant for liquid, it doesn't have front fan mounts...

i also kind of need fans that work with a: http://www.memoryexpress.com/Products/PID-MX18877(ME).aspx


thinking of 3 Scythe KAMA's because they are controllable.

Yep that's probably easier for you and a better idea. I would go with HAF. Comes with fans that gives amazing cooling but not loud. The look you either love it or hate it.
