I got the thermaltake riing 12 fans that change colours. That's really cool except they only work with the controller that comes with them (up to three fans in one controller in the three pack). There is no way to control them by software and the cables are short enough I cant just bring them up to one of the front optical bays and leave the controllers there. This means that in order to change the colour they are I have to open the side of the chassis.
My wires only just fit in the antec eleven hunderd v2 I bought especially with the be quiet dark rock cpu cooler also only just fitting, under 1cm clearance with the cpu cooler spec saying 170 mm allowance for cpu. The case is also noisier than I expected from fan noise. I am cutting down on the number of fans but I still want some visible, definitely at least one from the front.
Between the access issues for the controllers and the noise I think the best solution is a new case. Though I would love to find a software solution for the fans!
I am hoping to find a hinged case for easy access. I am also hoping to fit everything into a mid tower case. I love the in win 805 for its lovely glass look including at the front to show the fans and led lights including glass at the front for the front fans but it is also too narrow. I cant find anything with a hinged side panel however, only in full tower. Any ideas?
