Today I'll be modding a Cooler Master V8 with a higher CFM fan & white Leds instead of the Red. First I ordered some part from FrozenCPU 1/4W Metal Film Resistor 10-Pack - 470ohm (12 V DC) 5mm White LED Black 1/8" Nylon Cable Sleeve Scythe SY-1225SL12SH SlipStream 120mm Fan 1900RPM 110CFM 37dBA Next I started to make a led power cable, by soldering the 470ohm Film Resistor on the red wire on a 3 pin connector. The completed led power cable Next I drill a hole in the top of the fan to allow the led to insert. The led power cable attached & ziptied on the bottom. I did both sides the same then put the new fan in & put the V8 cap back on. That's it for today,, Next I will install it on my Stealth 2 Duo Rig, I Hope for it to cool better because of the higher CFM fan, the white leds will match my setup.
thanks, When I shut it down to install the V8, core temp read 98F at 3.1GHZ, V8 installed Screen Shot I was hoping to see better temps with it,, they did improve, Here's some pictures of it installed.
