Antec C8 owners — which fans are you using/recommending for a white build?
Hi everyone,
I’m planning a white build in the regular Antec C8 (without fans) with these specs:
Gigabyte B850 AORUS Elite WiFi7 ICE
Sapphire PURE Radeon RX 9070 XT
AMD Ryzen 7 9700X
360mm AIO on top (exhaust)
Planned airflow setup:
Side intake → 3 reverse blade fans
Bottom intake → 3 reverse blade fans
Rear → 1 exhaust fan
Top → 360mm AIO exhaust
I wanted to ask people who are already using the Antec C8:
Which fans are you using/recommending?
How are Jungle Leopard Prism / Thermalright / Antec Connect fans in this case?
Which fans gave you the best balance of:
aesthetics
airflow
low noise
cable management
I don't want to spend too much on fans, so I'd appreciate some budget-friendly recommendations.
Also, since the non-ARGB/non-fan version of the C8 doesn’t include a fan hub/controller, what are you guys using for:
PWM fan hub
ARGB hub/controller
Should I buy:
separate PWM + ARGB hubs or
a combined hub/controller?
Any recommendations for good hubs that work well with Gigabyte RGB Fusion would help a lot.
Thanks!
