I have the Scout. You could fit a 12" or 15" in it, in multiple places as well. There's a nice little spot at the top for one. You can also do a vertical one next to the mobo, nice open space there. Also below the window, or behind the PSU. The spot behind the PSU might only fit a 12" though.

thanks. In your opinion would green look better than white?

Personally, white would look much better. I would never put a cathode in my rig unless it was white. Try a white cathode with white-bladed fans (non-LED).

Swapped PSUs around on my FT02s. On the cruncher/folder (red case) swapped the EVGA board for a Rampage III Extreme and swapped the OCZ RAM for Dominator GTs. Plan to have either another 1 or 2 more 460 cyclones in that case for folding. Both i7 quads are going to be upgraded to hex's over next two months.

Now just need to finish with the NZXT Vulcan build.

KieX, could you share some of that gold mine you recently found? :toast:

I have a few questions.

How do the cathode kits connect to the PSU?

Can you recommend some white cathode kit brands/names/suggestions?

Can you recommend some white-bladed fans (non-LED) that would fit in the Storm Scout case?

Can you change the LED colour or fan of the fans that come installed on the case?

Thanks.

1. Usually connect using the 4-pin molex connector
2. Logysis has a white cathode kit on NewEgg, but I don't really venture many other places for computer hardware so I don't where else to get cathodes. Search Google?
3. 4 of these - GELID Solutions FN-SX12-10 120mm Silent Case Fan - will fit in the case
4. Yes, but it will require a bit of work. You'd be better off getting new fans instead.

Thanks for your help and nice looking system. May I ask whats that thing below your GPU? Is it an additional cooler or something?

Whats the difference between having white bladed and white LED fans? (besides the fact that one has LEDs and that the other doesn't?)

Below the GPU is an exhaust fan. Goes into a rear PCI port (obviously).

White bladed fans look better IMO, I dislike LED fans. I liked them when I bought this case, but they look tacky to me now and I have never replaced my fans (I have two in the side panel that are also red LED fans).

HEY I'M FAMOUS:laugh:


By the way sick rig bro!!! do you get better temps flipping the cooler horizontal?

The way it mounts only allows for horizontal mounting :| But it is probably better like that since the two fans in the side panel (not in the picture) blow toward it, so it can take in cool air and the top fan blows it out. Good flow IMO.
