Im building a new rig for a buddy, and Im using an XP 2500 and a SLK700...I was intending on using an 80mm Vantec stealth for the HSF and 2 more case fans (one intake in the front..1 exhaust in the rear...also 80mm Vantec stealths) does anyone think this is too little? he's not a gamer or overclocker so its just a daily use system..web browsing, photoshop etc. let me know your thoughts pls!!
 
the slk-700 cant hold 80 mm fans..
it can hold
"Stepped fins to hold 60mm, 70mm and 74mm (TMD) fans"

if you wanna use a 80 mm fan on the heatsink you should go sk-7 or slk-800.

and that amount of fans is fine.. =d and i would switch the heatsink for sk-7 or slk-800 =d
 
looks like Ill bump it up to the SLK800...thanks for catching that it doesnt handle 80mm fans...you saved me some $$ and time there.
 
I think the SK-7 holds an 80mm fan though....I could be wrong though
