I am looking for a Computer fan (cabinet) cuz all the games work maxed out but my CPU heats up fast. I need it at about 6$ and my specs are-

VGA - ZOTAC nVidia GFORCE GTX 560 Ti
Processor - AMD FX 6100 6-Cores
Ram - Corsair Vengeance 4GBx2 DDR3 1600FSB
Motherboard - Gigabyte 990XA-UD3
HDD - Hitachi SATA 1TB
Keyboard - E-Blue SCORT PRO Gaming
Professional Gaming Earphines+Mic - Razer Electra
Monitor - Samsung LED S22B370H
Joystick - Logitech Rumblepad 2
Case - CoolerMaster USP 100 Black Edition ATX

I'd prefer to buy at FlipKart cuz I have a coupon.

I guess I am in need of 120mm fans only and I have three extra slots. Can anyone confirm this?

Do you want a cabinet fan? If yes, then mention the size of hole available (80 mm, 90 mm, 120 mm).

Cabinet has 3 free slots by default allowing 80 to 120mm fans. Take a few CM 90cfm fans from FK @ 500each.

We can't say anything until OP gives info about the cabinet. There may be 3 holes but they may all be 80 mm.

I guess, my cabinet can take 120mm fan only. If someone can help me out if I am right? Cuz I am not exactly sure about this 120mm thing. And I guess I have 3 extra slots for fans. Please confirm if I am right. :-D

Confirm the model from the link I have posted. How many fans do you have now and what is the current airflow setup ?

Guys, if your cabinets have 120mm slots and 500 per fan is acceptable then take the CM 90cfm or CM Xtraflo. They are very good for their price.

PS: I have just ordered one of each. :razz:

I need final confirmation. My choices as suggested above:-

Deepcool XFAN120L/B - Deepcool: Flipkart.com
Computer Components - Buy Computer Components Online at Best Prices in India - Computers | Flipkart.com
Cooler Master XtraFlo Cooler - Cooler Master: Flipkart.com

Now, I want to know whether they will all fit my cabinet and which one is the best. I will buy two pieces of the chosen fan.

:-D

Guys, I got the fans! And also got partially screwed! The thing is my CPU has 3 slots and not 4. I got to know that the websites providing information normally exaggerate. So anyways, I got 1 spare for emergencies. No probs! And the one I put at the bottom of the cabinet is working like a charm! My CPU dosen't heat up and dosen't make noise either..... Thanks for your support guys! :p :O :-D

Attach the extra fan to the rear exhaust fan, thus creating a mega flow fan.
