Howdy all,
I have just done some small mods to my case. I put two cold cathodes in it and I went today and bought another 80mm fan. And now since I have all this lovely stuff, I want to make a clear side panel. I have the fiberglass out in my shed at the moment. Anyone know what tools I would need to accomplish this? And what all supplies I need? If someone could supply a site with a how-to on it then it would be greatly appreciated. My next question is how can I take a fan that is in an old powersupply and rig it up so that I can use it as a cooling fan. Its an 80mm fan and it works fine, and all its doing is sitting there so I thought why not use it. I have another CPU fan that has one of its blades broke off and I thought I could take the wires out of the connector its connected in and just clip the wires in the power supply and strip them and put them in the other wires place on the pass through connector. So far I got the pins out and all the wires are crimped down pretty tight. If anyone has any ideas on getting that worked out let me know because I havnt found a way yet.
Also, I want to ask about fan direction. I have the 80mm fan at the bottom front of my case. Should I have the fan blowing in, or out?
Thanks in advance
