Case mod 2.0!
I really like this sub-forum, it's awesome!
So, summer is coming up and I want to get started on my summer project plans, notably, my compulator case. Last summer, I rebuilt the case, now I'd like to expand further some.
My first question I'd like to pose is about fan noise. I currently have two Vantec 92mm Tornadoes running, but on the 5V, the sound of them on 12V is demonic simply put (need a fan controller). My intake fan on the bottom front of my case is inset about three inches, so it's a little vent basically. I think I read once that if something like that is done, that can cause airflow noise, is that true? I kind of want to increase the length of that vent about two, threeish inches so on the inside of the case, I can build around that vent so I can have that space for cable storage. But doing so, can that actually cause noise due to the airflow rushing into the vent?
Next, I also need to fix my LED lighting, one of my LEDs died. If you had to choose a color for LED accent lighting, would you choose blue or bright white?
And lastly, if anyone knows that is, where or how can I obtain a rechargeable battery pack that I can chuck into my case with a PATA connector to power a system lightning setup inside the case? I checked Radioshack, they don't seem to have something of such.
Any help will be much appreciated! :)
