Dead Fans...

[shawkins]

I know this probably isnt the best place to ask, But I need some dead 120mm fans to use as spacers for my WC setup. I also posted here:http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?t=433946 but I wanted to get some more attention for it because Im not sure how much traffic there is on the WTB section. So if any of you know where I could pick some up, or have some, PM me to let me know please!

Thanks!

I would edit this and pm a mod to delete becuase it's against forum rules. IBTL

Well, if you need 25mm spaces, you can try gutting an 80mm fan, cutting it into 4 equal parts, and using that while putting duck tape/plastic in the open spaces. I did this to space my tornado (92mm), but it might work with a 120mm fan too.

Hmmmm I do have a small collection of old crappy 80mm fans, so Ill try it. But it would probably look a little too crappy for outside the case...lol

just pick up some really cheap, crappy 120mm fans off of ebay or a discount/wholesale site and gut them out - thats what i did for a 92mm spacer fan for my friends xp-90

Thanks!

or you can just go to a local computer store or something(comp usa) and just buy the cheapest one you can find and gut it like Sneaky said

that is if you have any Computer stores around you....would be alot easier to just go get one then ordering and stuff

Oh man CUSA's cheapest 120mm fan is like $10. Hardly worth it for a shroud. :cool:

LOL im normally like that, but Ive been working on this project for over a month now. Im currently waiting for my STORM block to ship so I would prefer to save a few bucks (getting low on it nowday because of this darn project too) and oreder really cheap ones from somewhere.

Thanks

You're gonna gut the Panaflo? I don't know if I could bring myself to do that, it's a very good fan (I have a few). Plus it's 2 bucks more than the newegg one, and probably alot more than the eBay one (school blocks eBay sites so I can't see it).

[shawkins]

Seeing how I already have 5 of those Panaflo's that I paid $11 for (That seemed to be a good deal at the time) and Im only paying $5 a fan for these, I think I can bring myself to get atleast 3 for my RAD. LOL

Thanks

[shawkins]

Im really happy because these will look the same one the outside as my other Panaflo's (same fans), since I am mounting my RAD at the top of my case and the fans on the outside I really wanted them to match.
