Just did that. The front is all "dark" now which suits me just fine and my right
hand no longer gets "cold" when using the mouse; that's nice. =)

In response, I turned the 200mm and the rear 120mm to med speed. It's a bit
quieter too (obviously).

For giggles, I installed "lm-sensors" so I can monitor temps-

roguehorse at linux:~$ sensors
coretemp-isa-0000

Core 0:       +46.0°C  (high = +83.0°C, crit = +99.0°C)

Core 2:       +45.0°C  (high = +83.0°C, crit = +99.0°C)
Core 3:       +45.0°C  (high = +83.0°C, crit = +99.0°C)

                       (crit = +105.0°C, hyst =  +5.0°C)
                       (emerg = +125.0°C, hyst = +10.0°C)

LOL! I know, for whatever reason I've always had this paranoia of overtemp even
though I've _never_ had a system burn up, I don't overclock (anymore), and I
don't do heavy gaming. I barely even do video multimedia work anymore.
