Ok, i have so far in the case:

x1 120mm rear case fan
x2 120mm fan's on my TRUE
x2 120mm fan's at the bottom/front of my case

So thats 5 fans, which are all pretty good for cfm/noise, now heres my question. Out of all my 5.25" drive bays, only one is used - my dvd writer, so i have 4 spare and to be honest looks a bit crap on the outside looking at it, and its empty on the inside, apart from where ive tooked my cables in. Is there anyway i can mod this somehow? Im thinking of removing the bay covers, well at least 3 of them as they are never going to be used, and putting something similiar to this in: http://images.google.co.uk/images?hl=en&q=THERMALTAKE%20iCAGE%20A2309&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wi Obviously this looks like its for putting hard drives in with a fan on the front, can you get something similiar to this, i.e in the cage format that will slide in, or some other alternative. I hate seeing these daft covers when it can be put to good use, also the way they are positioned, such a fan in place would cool my ram.

Here is my tower, 1,2,3,4 are the drive bays im talking about, also if i could do something to 5 and 6?

Of course if you can think of something else i could use to put to better use, ive looked at fan controllers etc but to be honest they wouldnt be much of a benefit as i only have one fan connected to the motherboard.

Ideas please cheers;)
 
nice, does it come with led's or are there similiar with led's, just to make my pc snazzier :)

I suppose with something like that, i could put a small cathod or something behind it? See even with all these blue led fans i have, and purple cathodes im still waiting for, the tower looks pants from the front as you can see, led front mods if possible :)

cheers for the link mate ;)

edit: just read the comments seems you can swap the fans out, would this be easy and void the product im guessing?
 
Yeah, to be honest it looks naff as it is, but reading from them reviews if i add my own fan can make it look better, also the stock fan is only 800rpm!

dam the front of my case is ugly, this would cool my ram and motherboard too, well that settles that then.

Now, could i do anything with them daft floppy bay things, i was looking for a simple temperature display of some kind, but always come across expensive - over featured ones for my liking.

Cheers again
 
can you get ones that cover 4 bays with say a 140mm fan? that would be sweet

Also, the front door on the case is always open as it covers the usb ports (my 360 controller is connected as seen in the pic) - i was thinking of taking the door off as its always open anyway. Do you think i could do this, unscrew it off the hinges say?
