I did not use the hub in my Node 202. Used it in another build.

The fan hub is very small only. Node 202 sure got space for u to hide this. Dun worry

I think only cybermind sells noctua stuff, cause its the official distributor or something.



I don't know whether the tiny tiny node 202 case will have space left for me to include such a fan hub.. You have both the hub and the node 202, in your experience do you think there's space?

Should you be worry about fan mounts instead?? I know some add extra 40mm fans to push out the air while the case itself only have mounts/space for 2 x 120mm..

Oh nice to know that, thanks!

I see people just take a pair of screws to screw it against the vent holes along the 'top' at the cpu side there, so I guess I'll be doing something similar :s13: if not, can always cable tie? =:p I saw someone comment elsewhere that even 60mm fans can fit that location, but dunno how they mount.

That is just one more case fan which I feel is abit redundant when the cpu cooler fan is just below it.

I think the idea is the more source of air movers, the better?

Cooler is drawing in air..the gap between cpu and that vent above is even if you squeeze in a fan there too close to the cpu fan so imho not much effect.
