Purple LED 120mm fans?

Hey guys, I am doing a watercooled white/purple ITX build and need some 120mm fans for my rad. Does anyone know where I can find them? I looked everywhere and there doesnt seem to be any that exist, and are in stock.

Thanks
 
The only one that I could find was the XIGMATEK CLF-F1255, but no one has it. I'm guessing that's probably what you found. Performance PCs lists the product as added back in 2010, so I wonder if it's been discontinued? You could probably send them an e-mail; since they're a smaller business, the chance of getting a good answer from someone that knows is probably higher.

Those are the fans I saw too. Thats a good idea, I will contact performance PCs and see if they have a line on some of those fans.
 
Another option, which is probably a bit more difficult, would be to find a LED fan you like but ignore the LED color, find the LED size, buy purple LEDs, and replace the LED fan's LEDs. That's definitely a lot more work, but if those aren't available anymore, it might be a viable option.

It's also possible to maybe change around what follows the color scheme. If you really want a purple glow, why not go with LED strips? Phobya has an interesting product (longest and most expensive one) where you can select the color, intensity, etc. through a remote control. They also have a static purple one.

I was thinking the same thing. That way you can roll your own favorite fans, instead of using whatever you can get with purple LEDs.

I was going to incorporate purple LED strips/cathodes into the build also. I just really like an LED fan as intake, it gives the front a nice glow.

I think ill just buy some nice LED fans, and put purple LED's in them.
