that was just shuriken Rev.B I bought the shuriken 2 earlier (the big one). Neither of which I can close the case even after I remove the fan hah. Right now I just use the stock HS and tune down the fan, it's actually not too bad.

Time to move these to the ISK300!

this is the one

Ok sweet..... I own that one the REv 3 right?

I own that one too on my other pc....

can you do me a favor when you get the isk300

I believe the Scythe SCSK-1100 100mm Shuriken Rev. B 3

Fits with out cutting the bracket.... take a look...

you might need to clip it on quick to get a good fit ....please let me know...

I am planning to build another isk300 and may use the 1100

Yes I was going to try the old rev B in it first, I think it would fit, I also picked up a noctua NF-R8 to replace the case fan, figure that would be quiet enough, if not I'll use the big shuriken and a saw Smile

Honesly the stock 80mm fan that comes with it is very very nice.... its not loud on the first setting.... it's very nice that it has 3 settings you can switch on the back of the case.... inc ase one day it gets very hot.... but I doubt that you will need to switch....

try the stock fan first.... Smile

when you going to get the case?

it's tight but it fits baby! it's FTW with non-big Shuriken rev B.!

Beer the only difference between ours is I use non-big Shuriken, I'm using corsair 1600 ddr3, and I replace the side fan with a noctua NF-R8, and I got a 120W brick. It's amazing how dead silence this is.

the cable will need some more clean up LOL.

That is awesome! I knew that it would fit after I measured. This is good news! at least I did try the big shuriken 120MM....

But for a fact the 120mm is just a little more silent (not too much). But honestly both will be the same after the lid is on.

This will make it easier for other people and still be silent.

But I am going to use this on my next build that is going to be my desktop.

i say --> Scythe SCBSK-2100 FTW!!

you know that opening in the back of the ISK300
where's the stock 80mm fan speed controller?

u can fit a ZALMAN FANMATE2 right in there!

Could I fit an A8-3850 with a shuriken or similar cooler in this case without having to cut?

the A8-3850 has a TDP of 100W ....

the Scythe SCSK-1100 cooler handles a TDP of up to 75W ....

you need to use the Scythe SCBSK-2100 which handles a TDP of up to 130W ....

and, as power brick, i suggest 135W
