I want to add some fans to may case

by removing some fans in it.

The case is the SilverStone Raven RV01-BW.

The fans I want to replace are the 180mm fans in the bottom of the case. Now what I want to do is put 4 90mm fans in place of each 180mm fan.

Now the question is, would this be possible? Also, would this increase air flow?

It would make your case a lot louder for a start and I could be wrong but I can't see it increasing air flow that dramatically.

Well, the two 180mm fans are rated for I think 70 or 80 CFM at 800RPM. If I put in 4 90mm fans at 38 CFM each that would equal 152CFM. I don't really care about noise.

if you can get them to fit in the space & noise doesnt bother you, go for it
you can get some high cfm fans.

Why go halfway? 4-90mm from Thermaltake at around 70cfm each. You did say you didn't care about the noise factor.
