Will post intake fan swap swap video and pics soon 

SWEET! Can't wait to see more pics once you get those mods in.

Heres some pictures 

I didn’t know we could attach photos lol. 

Here it is. Still waiting for the keyboard and mouse to come out. Until then, I’ll try and figure out how I want my desk setup. Any ideas? The screen feels closer than usual. 

I usually keep it off to the side angled, so it’s not as close. 

I’ve actually finally got everything running well. 

I noticed the power supply makes a screeching noise when the fan is on... My r8 didn’t do that at all. In fact my r8 PSU was very quiet. Is this normal ? Should I call dell? The power supply is supposed to be better on the r9  what gives ?

I ended up using both fans dell630i sent me on the front intake. 

The other one, maybe I’ll install as a push pull on the radiator.(Maybe there’s enough room on the top of the case, in between the case and radiator housing) And just maybe, I won’t have to remove MOBO to do it! 

The fan on the right is what came on the front intake. 

Yes those are different connectors. They are actually more difficult to remove and install. Since it goes into pins.

@Anonymous , they solved that problem with the annoying USB header connectors we were talking about!

@GTS81  How do you feel about that blue and black IO header cable?

I hate them. What are the other options?

Although not the most elegant solution, it gets angled ever slightly to give the lower fan a clear airflow path. At the cost of blocking the top fan airflow for you double-front-fan-ers. 

I was trying to use imgbb

Should I be using something else?

That’s what I’m saying. The r8 psu fan never came on!

Other things I’ve noticed. 

The power % is much lower compared to the r8 when gaming. Case temps are way down. 30c is average. Goes up to 40c while gaming. My r8 was 50-60c.

I guess I’ll have to wait and see what other people are saying about the psu fan noise. I don’t really care to much. (The case fans are much louder) lol

The screeching sound probably isn't the fan. It's coil whine. You must have gotten a really great R8 PSU with the fan never turning on because mine never turns off until the day I swapped it out with the same PSU as @Anonymous has.

Even then, there is one part on my R8 that never fails to give out a screeching sound whenever I quit from Heaven benchmark software. I attribute that to a perfect storm of currents interacting to have some bundle of wires somewhere resonate.

Having coil whine on a brand new system is not acceptable to me. If you have a spare PSU lying about, try to swap it out to see if that's the cause. Or get Dell to send a technician over with a spare PSU, or better, PSUs from R8 and R9 to ascertain whether that's the root cause or not.

That's if changing PSUs even solves the problem. We won't know until @Bmwpower603 decides it bothers him enough to go down this debug path.
