I'm going to fit the front of my case with this http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/s....html?JEA-NEON case fan. Dont question the fan :D I like it.

Do I need to take off the front of my tower to screw it in place, and which side of the case does it need to be screwed into (inside or outside), or doesnt it matter?

If I take off the front of my case, wont there be loads of wires there and then I wouldnt be able to take it completely off?

Cheers

on my case you just take out 4 screws and all the wires are off and the are all together so go back on ok. firstly we need to know what case it is maybe a picture or make.

you may need to take off front cover depending on where screws go etc.

it is mostly screws and a simple 3 pin fan connector, the hardest bit will be getting to it

are there any clips on the side after you take the side pannels?

on mine there is clips up the front on either side witch come off and one on the top under the top panel. after it all clips off you will then have to be carefull and unscrew the cables (if there is any)
if there is any lights or LED's then you have to watch because these are nrmally glued into place and will have to be re-glued after the panel is taken off.

I think he means the LED's on my case. I managed to get the fan in and it all seems to be working nicely.

Thanks guys.
