What width for cooling fans?

[Heavy-D]

Hey, I need to know the width of a factory cooling fans versus what the typical width of a SPAL/Slimline fans are. A shop near me says they have ones in stock that are 3" or a little over and I'm not sure if that is thin enough because I have clearance issues with the stock fans.

3" seems pretty common, stock widly is more around 5-6". My fans are around that thickness. Also, you cannot run dual 14" fans if you were looking to do so. The largest combo you can run is a 14 and 12" fan. I personally use 2 12" fans with the rewire and it works perfect .
