Modding Inwin q500a with two 120 mm fans in side

[sohcrates]

Howdy,

this weekend i'm planning on modding my friends Inwin q500a full tower case. He picked up two 120mm sunon fans as well as chrome grills, and we're going to put them on the left side panel of his case (i.e. one blows over cpu, one over video card)

I was wondering if anyone knows of any guides for this.

I've already found a decent one at HardOCP, but was looking for others that might be out there.

I'm warming up my dremel as we speak!

thanks

If you have access to a drill motor, go to a hardware store and buy a hole saw with arbor for cutting the holes. Using a dremel for the job will take forever. Just measure the ID of the fan housing bore and purchase a hole saw closest to that size. A small file or some sandpaper will clean up the edges of the cuts.
