How do you guys attach additional fans?

julesrsaunders · Feb 16, 2006

My case has two fans as standard(as well as the CPU,Graphics,Chipset) but I want to fit another fan but I'm not sure how to attach it. I've got a few fans 90mm and 60 mm just sitting around so I should put them to good use. How do you guys attach fans within your case? Some pics would be great.

How do you guys attach fans within your case?

Could you be a little more specific.

Where in the case do you want to mount a fan? To cool what? :shrug:

Cut out a hole in the side or top and drill some mounting holes.

I'm trying to lower the PWMIC on my DFI LP NF4 Ultra-D. I need to place a fan pretty close to this.

What HS are you using on your processor?
Do you have a pic of your rig/ mobo with the cpu HS installed? I'm trying to see what you have to work with!
