Topic: HAF 932 Fan QuestionPosted: 14 Oct 2009 at 11:42pm |
|
Can someone from DS tell me about the stock fans for the HAF 932 case? I heard somewhere that the stock front fan is a red LED fan. I want to have a green lighting theme for my system, so a red fan would not be wanted. Not really wanting to get the green performance fans as I'm guessing they would be louder than stock. So is the fan red, or not lit at all? Thank you for your time.

It's red. I wanted green also.
It depends on your system, but if you're getting LC, they're going to have to remove the top fan anyway to put the radiator(s) in. You could ask them to move that fan (which isn't a LED) to the front to replace the 120mm Red LED.
If you're NOT getting LC, well, talk it over with DS.
You might have to order a replacement fan directly from CM or elsewhere:

I've looked too, and so far, can't find a green one.
If you get the black (non-lit) you could -possibly - put green LED on it, I think there's kits for doing that (can't say with authority, never modd'd one). Edited by Psimon - 15 Oct 2009 at 8:32am |

I am planning on having the CPU liquid cooled, so moving that fan may be an option. I will talk with them and see if that's possible or if it will cost extra. Thanks for the info!

they don't make the 230mm fan in green, you can ask them to replace it with a 140mm green led fan but they are bit louder.

Or I just may change my mind and go with a red lighting theme, then problem solved LOL!! Not a big deal, especially if it saves me a little money. It will still look good, I'm sure.
Getting verrrrry anxious. My money is coming in much sooner than I thought, should be ordering my system early next week. Wooooot!!!! And yes, I'll definitely post plenty of pics :) |
