Adding Extra Fans to Aurora R4 and largest CPU Cooler
Hello fellow aliens,
I have two questions about Aurora R4 Cooling
- How many fans can I add to a non ALX Aurora R4?
- Where are the potential fan locations?
does a rather large Zalman CPNS9900 fit? Size: 94(L) x 131(W) x 152(H)mm
Thanks

1. As many as you want. But mine is fine with stock fans (on Manual-Curves)
2. I've always thought one in case ceiling would be nice. Especially if your upgraded video card now vents into case (like my Nvidia GTX-1070 does). But again, seems fine to me the way it is.
3. I suggest an Asetek Liquid Cooler or clone (ie Corsair) for an Intel-i7. I think the best Alienware branded one (for Aurora R1-R4) was "Premium" 01YGW .

Hi Tesla,
I have just observed my Alienware Aurora R4. I have some questions about point 1 & 2. How can I attach fans onto the ceiling? I mean, other than honeycomb holes, I see no potential sites.
Also, can I add fans to the front?
3. Regarding that, I prefer air coolers.
