    Fans


    Well.. Long time no see.
    I haven't really had any time or money to work on my mod, but now i'm on again!

    Just ordered the fan's.

    The choice of fan is the Arctic Cooling F12 120mm fan which i ordered 15 of.
    Now you're all properly thinking; "WTF?? Why 15 fans?", and the truth is that they are not all for me. My friend is taking 7 so that leaves 8 for me.

    Anyway, they are all gonna get a nice painjob with some UV green fins, and i'm sure its gonna look just awsome. :thumb:

    Here is a pic of what they look like:

    I'll check back with some pics of the fans, and the case as i promised you all a loong time ago. :D

    Definitely number 2! Sometimes LED fans can be great but I think that these would suit your build more.

    hmm, not a fan of LED's but the colour of number 2 looks wrong compared to the braiding. Spray the blades a much brighter green and you're onto something ;)

    Well, that's only a picture. I don't know about the color in real life, but maybe it's worth a try, just to see how the color's match. ;)

    #2 without hesitation, if you want lightning you should put out some discrete white 3/5mm LEDs.

    New Name!

    I decided to change the name of the project!..
    I hope you all agree with me that the new name sounds better. :thumb:

    Thanks for all the votes on the Fans. Think i'm gonna go with black frame, green blades, but i'm gonna paint the blades myself! :D

    As for the D-LXS logo's on the previous pics, i ain't got enough patience to change it right now, but maybe i will someday!

    I know it's hard to imagine what the case is gonna look like, cause i don't got any concept arts, but i aint that pro at Photoshop, but i will try my best in the near future!

    But please keep checking in every now and then, and PLEASE comment on my work! It would be much appreciated! :thumb:

    I'll check back shortly with some pics of the case!!
