XPS 8960, aftermarket cooling options

On the XPS 8960 air cooled version: 

  1. What are the dimensions for the front and the rear chassis fans?
    1. Can either be PWM
  2. Will the Noctua NH-U9S work on this model with some 4 off M3 x 16 screws or 4 off M3 x 25 set screws (grub screws) for CPU cooling?

Mine arrived. In case anyone needs the information, the front and rear fans are the same. They are both Model: AFB1212EJ-01, Dell P/N: 76PC8-A00.

Pics attached of the case interior. It's very roomy. I do have purchased the Noctua cooler and grub screws I mentioned above. I'll install that with new 120mm fans as soon as they arrive.

What are your rig specs?

Interesting that it came with a 10-pin mobo power connector instead of 12-pin.

yes the two sata power cables are always included.  I am interested in knowing the DP/N of the black tab sata data cable, if that one is long enough to reach the left upper corner.  seems a mystery to me.  thanks.
