MATT man sick we got the same case, similar build too, post pics when i'm done modding mine out its going to be amazing. Post of pic of how you got that fan to stay at the top of the case?!?! always said that one that has to blow through all those small holes is basically useless
Getting huge 25cm side fan, 2 more blue 90mm fans, another 120 front intake icage fan, and i'll be removing everything and spray painting the inside black :)

did you get your new case owned?you must have i know that hp case didnt have any led fans lol.

1 g0t 0wn3d · 09-05-2007, 07:46 PM

yeh the ones that came with it sucked so i had to run(overheating) to the overpriced pc store and buy $30 worth of fans lol hp uses 90mm sadly and i could not find a spot for it

scharnhorst · 09-05-2007, 07:47 PM

miss understood matt talking about his upper 90mm fan. I thought he found some way to attach a fan to the top open part of the case :( don't think its possible after all, know where he was talking about with the zipties, my case i guess came with one there.

1 g0t 0wn3d · 09-05-2007, 07:49 PM

yeh xipties would work i just like the blue led and it has a fan grill

**TheMatt** · 09-05-2007, 07:57 PM

I never figured I would be using them to hold a fan in place though. Looking at the way I mounted it makes me laugh.

I will definitely have to get some pics with the front panels removed.

scharnhorst · 09-05-2007, 08:35 PM

please after I get my new psu, i'll have 2 extra 90mm fans trying to figure out what i'm going to use them for if anything

**TheMatt** · 09-06-2007, 11:35 AM

Are you sure you will have to take out the read 90mm fan? That should be able to stay in. The top 90mm fan will probably have to go though.

1 g0t 0wn3d · 09-06-2007, 03:38 PM

i was thinking about modding my 90mm to the back of my psu for better air flow(has a 120mm pushing air through it

**TheMatt** · 09-06-2007, 04:30 PM

It would have to be an 80mm as all PSUs according to the ATX and EPS spec are exactly 86mm high.

1 g0t 0wn3d · 09-06-2007, 04:34 PM

it owuld be mounted outside of the case.

**TheMatt** · 09-06-2007, 04:38 PM

OK I see what you are saying. What I would do is drill some holes in the case above and below the PSU and then mount the fan in a diamond position so it is not actually attached to the PSU.

scharnhorst · 09-06-2007, 04:53 PM

Hmm thats an interesting idea! I bought 2 more blue 90mm fans i was planning on using them to replace the stock 90mm that came with the case. I've been trying yo figure some way to use them in the case. Maybe if i were to remove all the pci slots metal things in the case would leave just enough room below my gfx card to fit one either blowing air out. the other one I might try with that psu idea or something. Painting it going to be a pain also but should improve the look.
