what exactly is a blowhole for a fan?

just the name for the hole in the case for the air to go though.

its the hole on top of the case

oh ok i thought it was something special cause i weuld always here about people putting in a blowhole and i was like what is that? so thanx and onto my next topic that has to do with the hole is it pretty easy to turn an 80mm blowhole into like a 120mm blowhole?

get out the dremel or the jig saw and have fun modding

yea if only i had a dremel tool i hear they are the modders best friend lol

u can be lazy and get a hole saw lol..

hole saw? like one of those things u put on the front of a drill?

Yeh, and it does all the work for you.

heh now thats for me lol and it will cut a 120mm hole?

but if you already have a hole there then you will need to put a block of wood behind the metal/plexi so it will drill straight

yeah actually its probably going to be metal and plexi i am thinking about modding my window and the blowhole in the top of my case putting 120 fans in those and then replacing my crappy $2 with thermaltake smart fans

4" hole saw will work for 120mm fans i believe

so take a block of wood and hold it whole i drill and then just cut the hole and drill me four screw holes and i am good to go?

more like clamp the board other than that yes

alright i can't wait until i get time to do it heh thanx for the help

If you want a hole for a 120mm fan just trace around a cd. Cd's make a perfect fit for them.

Also, how much money can I expect to spend on a hole saw? I've heard they are mighty expensive....

it depends on if you buy a cheesey one or a good one i have seen the cost $200 for a 4 piece set going from 3/4" to 2"

whoa ok i guess i'm not going to be using a hole cutter to cut the whole for my fan then i know where i can get a dremel cool possibly so i guess i'll just use it and the cd ideaf
