Interesting Request about Fans & Computer Cases

well, with the old at/xt cases, all you would need would be a case with a power supply in it.

then you could just turn it on, and the fans could run off the power leads.


the newer atx cases, and power supplies, require a signal, you can find this by doing a google search for "atx pinouts" (if it's typical, grounding pin 14, green should light it up)

so either way, you just need a case, and a power supply.

but with the atx, it's a little more difficult to make it start up.

I'm dying to know :grin: Are you using your case as a beer cooler? Or a wind tunnel for testing model aeroplanes? Please, you have to tell us!

Koala raises a good point!

You can also obtain a small switchable ATX power tester. That's how I've seen it done at stores that have fans on display.
