    Hi guys,

    Nothing so far to do with my PC building mission has gone smoothly and this is no exception.

    I've bought a Vantec Tornado fan to put at the front of my Chenbro Gaming Bomb case.

    The case metal holes aren't quite big enough for the screws that came with the Vantec Fan. So screwing it in is madness and I haven't been able to yet. Also the plastic fan screw holes have no 'bite' to take the screws so how the hell are the screws meant to go into the fan itself? :wallbash:

    If I want air to be blown around the case and not out of the case by this fan. Does the moving part face the inside of the case or out at the grill? Help, as usual, oh and have I mentioned before that I'm a n00b?

    :waah:

    redrill the holes to make them bigger on your cash.. and all fans come without the tap in the fan.. you have to do it yourself.. its a pain yes (ive rounded off many screws doing this) but it has to be done
