Looking for low profile ( <=20mm ) quiet (prefer blue led) case fan...

[Gibbo]

As it says up there ^^ 120mm diameter

This would be to fit on the inside of my case side but without fouling the top of my Noctua CPU cooler.

Clearance approx 21mm atm

Is there anything?

Gibbo,

What chassis do you have?

D'oh, read your sig... Antec TX1050 case yeah?

Edit:

The majority of the 120mm fans that I just scanned through on our site are 120x120x25...

You could always mod either the case or the fan, shave a few mm off maybe if at all poss? Not ideal but a quick search for 120x120x21 dimensions doesn't look promising ...

[leepen@scan]

I think we have a winner...

Now just have to see if we can get some...

They look like a goer.....



Let me know if you can get any or who might stock them in the UK.

Thanks

Antec TX1050 case yeah?

Yeah but it's far from std....however atm it just has the open grill that used to feed the 92mm duct over the old style P4 diddy CPU cooler....now that I have a monster Noctua in there then I need to do something with the grill/hole but there's only 21mm clearance between the top of the copper pipes that stick out of the heatsink and the inside of the side panel....

I had thought about and still am thinking about attaching the 92mm duct to the outside of the case and blowing down the duct with a 92mm fan but who wants a 4" 'chimney' sticking out the side of their case?

Oh I dunno it'd certainly look funky...

[Gibbo]

oh and while we're at it I'd be in the market for some 120mm and 80mm filter style grills - mesh? foam? whatever?

Not seen such a thing at Scan.....

[leepen@scan]

Purchasing are on the case - shall let you know when I get some more info

[Gibbo]

Oh and while you're on at purchasing how about some large poly/rubber grommets or 'grommet edging' ?....I have decided to perforate my motherboard tray to improve cable management and also cut 2 holes in the rear of the case to pass the 24pin ATX cable outside the case and back in again...have you seen the ridiculous placement of the power socket on a P5QL-E?
I need the sharp edges that will result protected....

Thanks

Edit:

perhaps stuff like this:

that performance pcs site is great

[Gibbo]

I've found most of what I need at another supplier but will wait until next week until ordering as I seem to have run out of money this month!

Edit:
but no out of stock there of most of what I'm after...I'll wait and see if Scan come up with any interesting options...

[Gibbo]

any news on these?

I didn't place the order elsewhere as I wasn't confident that they'd deliver - there was something funny going on with their site....

Gibbo,

YGPM with regards to the grommit edging - it's actually called "Castellated Grommet Strip". (I didn't think it was fair to post a link in the scan forum to another supplier hence the PM)

[Gibbo]

news?

[Gibbo]

Any news on the Yate Loon 120x120x20mm fans?

[Gibbo]

I bought a Yate Loon fan somewhere else now at a very reasonable &#163;3.99.
