I have a Gigabyte motherboard in this case and I installed dual SQ 900W power supplies. I replaced the 3, stock back wall fans with these: FAN-0074L4 (5K RPM) and it still has the factory, dual exhaust (loud) fans. I was thinking about using these for the exhaust fans: FAN-0104L4 (2800 RPM) but also..... replacing those 5K RPM back wall fans with 104L4 ones.

I don't have the drive bays fully populated and right now, my HDD's stay around 30C (or less) year round in my basement here.

I understand the static pressure thing but would it be super bad to use these 2800 RPM fans throughout the case? (Not 100% if the 104L4s will even fit in the back wall?!)

Thanks
