which way do the amber case fans go in eclipse

THC_SsSsSnake · 11 Apr 2006 at 14:17

I see 2 arrows on the side of the fans one going uP and the other going from left to right or reverse if you turn it over.

Which way do i put them in the case please?

THANKS

The way the arrow points. If you can't work it out then just eat them.

The one going from left to right (as in the width of the fan, the direction the air would be pushed in) shows the direction the fan blows the air, so arrow going in at the front, out at the back is the usual way.

THC_SsSsSnake · 11 Apr 2006 at 14:28

so the front fan fitted the correct way would mean that you cant read the Akasa etc writing on the circle in the middle ie its pointing to the back of the case and the arrows are on the left one pointing to the back of case and the other one above it pointing downwards?

It's so simple, you should really be able to work it out. Plug it in and feel the airflow, that should surely show you.

That is how the rear one should look.

Zefan some people like to get it right first time; I know I do.

Yewen · 11 Apr 2006 at 14:38

blimey the screws are tight,thought I was gonna split the plastic but its ok

THC_SsSsSnake · 11 Apr 2006 at 14:39

thanks Yewen.I got the power supply next lol

Zefan · 11 Apr 2006 at 14:39

Yeah I have mine on my rad and it buzzes loads due to it having to be screwed so tight. Have even tried washers but it still buzzes

Try using thoose rubber mounting fan mounts instead of screws, they are fantastic!

Zefan · 11 Apr 2006 at 14:41

The rubber screws? As I said I'm using it on a rad and I don't think it'd like it much.

Ive also taken out 2 metal drive holders, a small one and a bigger one that sat infront of the front fan,the smaller one was hangin down fron the middle of the case,will that help air flow as i dont need them?

Yewen · 11 Apr 2006 at 14:50

If you do not need them, you do not need them
