@BumbleBee

How about a guide in changing the LED of the 230mm fan? I cant seem to find one online. I like blue LED. IMO, it's much cooler to look at.

Buying the blue 230mm fans isn't an option because they're not available where I'm at.

on Cooler Master Online Store you can buy the 230mm no LED model for $9.99 the Red LED version is $19.99

I have seen some LED mod guides around for fans, search harder.

i'm starting to think the HAF 932 comes stock negative air pressure, that front 230mm doesn't seem to do anything with that hard drive cage in front of it.

CM sells the blue LED fans. I bought three of them from their store. I'm running them in the HAF now.

hehe when I see this I think of Wayne's World, Garth and the "Suction" oh and be sure to give this a quick glance about the side fan results.

ahh I think I was right the 230mm fans have low static pressure, pieces of junk!

Sniper needs to organize the first post like other club pages. be patient OC's clubhouse is 57 pages long and only a dozen members with HAF pictures but apparently the guy who started the clubhouse stopped adding people because he couldn't keep up.

something like this.

I will try to get some pictures of mine up soon. Honestly it is nothing spectacular. My main goal was to have a clean, uncluttered look.

So do you like the case. I usually don't get to excited but a case, but the HAP 932 is just looking so sweet, roomy and easy to go water if needed......

what's your opinion, thanks for your time!

The fact that it's setup from the get-go to hold a 360 sized rad in the top (without any modificaitons) is just totally kick ass.

Between that and the sheer volume/size, PSU placement options and cable management makes it second to none.

The Airflow philosophy of a huge open compartment rocks. It's simple and it works. I've seen cases "compartmentalize" airflow, but it leads to way less flexibility, and a complicated, expensive case.

Despite the size, I'm actually amazed at how light it is. Which leads me to one concern, it's not quite as sturdy as other cases I've owned.

Love it, as has been said, it's just ready made for ease of use, everything is where you want it, more space than you can use, made for watercooling, good airflow and it looks damn good also. Everyone talks about the Antec 1200 and I am sure it's an excellent case but in the UK it is £40 more expensive than the HAF...... a no brainer IMO.

I have done no mods, everything is stock, as I said, I like things plain and functional, here are a couple of pics I took when I installed my i7 rig a couple of weeks ago, they arent very good as i was using the crappy old camera, ohhhh and I did add a 120mm fan with dust cover at the bottom..............

Neither, it simple pushes onto the fan guard that came with it that has a retaining ridge each side so it just clips on and off easily.

i'm against fan filters for obvious reasons but I think they are really useless with this case with the ventilation on the left and right side panels.

I only put it in to add a little extra airflow onto my Xifi Elite Pro that gets pretty hot at times.
