i was reading up on the Antec 1200 last night and i didnt actually realise it comes with 2 optional fan slots, one is obviously on the side panel for your GPUs although they say in the manual that you can attach one to the inside of the drive caddy so that it will either blow air twards your CPU, GPU or PSU depending on which caddy you attach it to.

My problem is that i cannot work out where to fit the fan or how to fit it, the instructions in the 1200 manual are very basic with no images and they are confusing me and i really want to fit it to the middle caddy to that i can increase air flow on my GPU.

has anyone fitted this or know what im missing? i cant figure it out for the life of me.
 
There should have been a 120mm fan bracket on the back of one of the hdd cages that you can just slip a fan into?

nope. the back of all the cages look identical. inside the box that came was cable ties, screws and a bay converter for a 3.5in drive.

No wonder i cant fit the bloody fan.

i just found this online:

ffs, it seems when Ocuk built my rig the guy forgot to put the fan bracket and PSU converter into my box full of bits and bobs.

edit: the OC uk boards is fitering the word h e x u s on the link above for some reason i have no idea... remove the - if you want to view.
