Had my akasa eclipse for quite afew years now, really liked the fact there was so much space inside to work in even though looks wise it is kinda plain.

I have decided on an Antec 1200. It looks awesome and it should bring down my temps slightly with all those fans. :D

Now I currently have a Tagan 450W, will I need some sort of extension cables seeing as the PSU goes at the bottom in the Antec?

Do the current batch that ocuk sell come with an additional fan, or infact any additional kit? I will be looking to add a side panel fan and connect it to a fan controller, aswel as a fan over the gfx card again connected to a fan controller on lowest settings.

Any recommendations for fan controllers?

Do ocuk still do the FREE shipping, I am just looking atm but will place my order this week.
 
If you want to hide the wires, You will probably need a 24pin atx and 4/8pin atx extension depending on where they are on your mobo.

As for the side fan, I wouldn't bother. A few tests show that it does very little for temperatures.

Definately will want to hide the wires. I intend to actually spend abit of time on this build and try and get it bang on, neat and tidy etc, and hopefully there won't be a dust build up in there with the filters already installed. :)

This would have been something for later anyway, but thanks though, I probably won't bother.
