I have a Scythe 4 Fan controller that works great but it came with only 3 or the 4 positions being used.  So when you look at my great water cooled rig there is this fourth knob that is 0 / 0.  It looks like something is broke.  That is the first thing anyone notices. 
So the question is: Do I have another place to put a fan with a temp readout?

Case 95Si with the CPU water cooled.

Thanks,
Ace

did you make any fan upgrade at the time of the order? they can add up to 4 fans on the side door, or you can go with one, but they do it as a custom job. I sure there is some where you can add a 120mm fan.

I did not add any fans because I added the water cooling.  Is there one that would benifet the 280 card.  I have to set the fan speed at 80% to keep it from overheating (it has stock settings).  I do not see where a fan would go in the door.
thanks for the fast post and info.

your gpus fan is pretty much always gonna be at 80%, cause they run hot and adding fans to the case is not gonna help you gpu much, most of your gpu cooling will come from its own fan.

have a look here to see a bit of modification

To add fan to side window do mod the Plexiglas or buy one for it?
Your rig looks great!

Its not mine actually, but it is a beauty, I like the HAF myself, why don't you call DS and ask them where is the best/easiest place for you to add a fan, I'm sure they can tell you a good/easy spot, I'm not very familiar with the inside of that case but I'm sure there is more then one place you can add another fan.

do you have a fan for the HDDs? I think the 950 has a spot to add a fan for the HDDs.
