    I hae an NZXT Tempest EVO, and I want to remove the side fan (the one in the window), and I can not work out how to get it off. There does not seem to be any screws and I dont want to break things.

    Does anybody know how to get it off?

    Thanks

    It looks like it uses the same fitting system as my M59 on the window fan, they are four push-in type pins.

    All you have to do is push the pins from the inside then pull the pins out & the fan will then com away from the window.

    Hope this helped...
