I recently purchase cooler master case ATC-201B BXT

http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproduct.asp?DEPA=1&submit=Go&description=ATC-201B,BXT

nice paint job and a good case over all, but I notice that its almost impossible to replace 2 front (intake) fans because the screws' heads are on the other side and there's no way i can unscrew it..

the fans dont push alot of air so I really want to replace them w/ different fans..

if anyone who has the same case or have some knowledge about this.. please give me some advice..

thanks
 
Take off the 2 side panels. Now you got access to the 4 screws holding the front grill/filter. Remove grill/filter, and go at on the fans. Real easy.
 
Yes, it's no problem at all & the method posted above is correct.

Removing these fans was one of the first things I did to accomodate my heater core. I ended up sawing off all the fan mounts eventually by the way. :D

You might reconsider replacing them with other fans by the way. The ones on my 201 were acceptable mid-range YSTech fans. Not incredibly powerful, but also not too loud and you've got 4 in there moving air, so it all sums up.
