Hey guys,
I have modded again, with eric's help, only this time it's just fans. A simple mod of putting that huge fan I have in the top (120MM). I also put a turbo fan that makes a hell of a noise and blows out more air then any other fan you can find for a pc, because it's not made for a pc but it was modded to fit in.
Lighting to the Turbo fan was added. Seperate LEDS blinking at seperate times built into the fan.

Here are the pics Boys and Girls.
I threw in a Microsoft flag too just to erk you guys.
This is a side pic of my case, you can see the big ass fan in the top.
A more direct shot of the fan on top.
And a picture of the turbo fan placed in the front. It does have lights but I couldn't get a good pic with them on. You can see 1 light in this pic.

For better pics, turn your cam light off and take the pic in the dark. Is the fan 12 v, 120v, or otherwise?
The flag shot shows off the discolouration of the ceiling due to water leakage. You may wanna have that checked out before it really pores one night...........and a leak stream falls straight through the nice hole you cut in the top of your comp.
Overall, nicely done fan. You thinking of hooking up a fan/bay bus, rhetrostat, or nadda to it?
Also, is it blowing in or out? What's the general schematic for all your fans?

The Turbo fan is running off 12V, and no I don't have a fan bus it's just a wire mess coming off the p.s. Someone will have to tell me more about this fan bus you talk of. The fan on the top is blowing air out.
This house is old i'm not really worried about water leaking, it's been like that for years.

All ya need to know can be learned from here:
http://www.fanbus.com/
Why buy when you can build better?
Are the LED's on/off or chasing? If chasing, where'd ya get the instructions on how to make the circuit? A web site or just common knowledge?

-LED questions added
