Yeh i no. I have the black 120mm fan filters in my main system and find them to much of a blocker then anything. Thay are to fine and fat for air to go out.

Thats why im looking for just a open mesh for my new case.

At the moment the fan holes look like this: s206.photobucket.com

This one will have a 120mm black AC Ryan RadGrillz on it.

696477 2008-08-11 10:58:00 Meh. Just drape a bit of razor wire around the fan ports. It would be a point of difference. R2x1 (4628)

Not only restriction on the fan inlet, but restriction on the outlet is bad too.

Round holes in perforated plate have a discharge coefficient of around 0.8, so even with perforated plate that has a total hole area of say 0.8 of the plate area (and it wont be much greater than that, usually less), the flow through the plate will only be around 0.6 of what the flow would be with a complete open hole.

Perforated plate is a dead loss, a wire fan grill would be better.

of course it's probably far more than you need but you can get it in different grades from fine to coarse at Repco stores and probably elsewhere .
