How did you mount the fan in the front of your case???? I'm looking to do the same thing, if you could throw some pics up of how the front fan is mounted would ROCK

Oh and since I'm at it here is a link to my album so you can see my build thus far. ; )

Chidley, Can you post a picture of your wire management behind the motherboard?

I finally got my new PSU and got everything in. It is still very much a work in progress as I have many ideas I still need to explore. Here is a shot of my case right now though.



I just noticed the other side panel is off too and there is the coach of the Dallas Cowboys, Wade Phillips in the shot, LOL . Im a Cowboys fan. Dont take pics in front of your TV.

Hi guys,

I Know you all are owners of the CoolerMaster HAF so i think you guys will be the best people to answer my question. I am in the process of looking for full tower cases and now I got it down to just two, CoolerMaster HAF 932 of Cosmos S?

I have an aquagate max and planning to add another rad (MCR320)

Thanks..

Shine that true back up spacegoast! good job on the cable management though it looks great.

chidley

Uhh i could post a picture of the management behind the motherboard but that would require me taking it off and im too lazy. Its deep lets just say that, i use cable ties, and duct tape, i should go to home depot and get some stick cable tie anchors.

Also mounting that fan was a *****, 140MM fits in their perfectly tho and the drive supports bnasically hold it in place.

But I mounted it with like 6 cable ties thru the holes, i had to remove the tooles bay things, which youll most likely break them in the process, but no biggie cause you dont need them to mount stuff anyways. But yea it was pretty dificult mounting that fan there, just get some long cable ties and thred them thru the 4 screw holes and tighten it down, just make sure the fan is straight and level before u fully tighten 1 or 2 down.

thx chidley. I may just go with a 120 or scyth has a 140 that mounts up to 120 holes! I will deff throw a fan up front either way. Did you notice any temp differences?

i didnt really notice any temp changes, which is why im going to be changing the top 230mm to 2x120mm scythe kaze jyuni 1900rmp (which is what the drive bay one is), but i doubt im gonna see much temp changes right now since is pretty cold where i live right now, my cpu idle temp never changes from 33, id have to lap it or get a better fan on the xigmatek to see that change probably. So when i change the 230mm to two 120mm ill let u know if the temp changes.

I think in the summer time ill upgrade to i7 and x58 and watercooling.

I like those lights. Looks like you have lightsabers in their, lol. I have my Mushkin Redlines coming in tomorrow. I think Im gonna go for a red and black theme with this case. I plan on doing some painting here in the coming weeks. I am going to disassemble almost the entire case, everything that I can anyway, and just go to work with some red and black.
