IN any case, if the megahalms is going to fit in any case, it would the the HAF's

gregers05 · 10-31-09, 12:26 AM

if the case HAF if wider than the antec 900 then yes they will fit

pretty much my question is, do I have to remove the side panel fan like what I did to my antec 900...

I have used a TRUE and PM in the HAF932 with the side panel on with the fan no problem. There is like 3" between the panel and the PM.

ty much for this info. Although I think I'm going for the 922, 932 is a little big, should still fit though

how wide is that case

there's about 1cm between my side panel and my TRUE in my Antec 900 lol...
and you need to cut the side panel fan's corner if you want to mount 2 fans beneath and on top of the TRUE.

Antec 900 are crap cases.. (sorry only speaking from experience, bought one and sold it within a week) don't get why people would recommend it. And no.. just cuz a HS fits in it with your setup does not mean another's will. Depends on Socket location and sidefan (can easily mod fan to outside though) although if HS blocks it whats the point....

Do not listen to everything you read on any forum. Some voices are louder than others and swa opinions. the 900 sucked. Plain and simple. Needed to be moddd to work right and was not wide enough. HAF I have no clue never worked with it. If it has sidepanel fans in the vicinity of hte HS guarantee they will need to be removed to fit a tall heatsink unless it is uber wide

It fits just fine in the HAF932. The fan does not come anywhere near the HSF. I have noted the height of where the fan goes. If you notice, the TRUE's height is only as high as the GPU is wide. The PM fits too. If anything, the P6T is worse than most motherboards and the socket sits lower. You can't access the backplate from the hole in the back. It sits lower than the hole. The eVGA I have now is much higher.

DDjax ty for the pix. I looked at the 922 and I think the width is same as 932, I'm just waiting for a free time to go to frys and get the 922 :P
