hey, i was wondering if you are able another 120mm fan to the front of this case. If anybody is familiar with the armor case they'll know that the 120mm fan supplied can be moved to different places on the front. Well i was wonding if you can add a second 120mm fan above it, as there is 11 drive bays and im only going to use like 2-3 so i was thinking that if i was to add another 120mm (blue LED) fan then it would make the front of the case more attractive rather than having lots of empty drive bays. Also would the extra 120mm on the front be beneficial, coz technically with 2 then ur getting twice the amount of cold air flowing into the case - which is good isnt it?

here's the link to the thermaltake armor:

You have two choices.

You can get Thermaltake ICage which is designed specifically for this purpose. Take a look at the front of my rig and you can see. I wasn't able to find the ICages in canada yet which led me to option 2.

Get the Coolermaster 4 in 3 device module and replace the fan with a blue 120mm led (I actually used coolermaster fans too) I was able to pick them up from comtronic in toronto for $21 canadian each (they included fans which I didn't need)

Here's the trick. They work exactly the same as the ICage except that Thermaltake Armor has notches in its 5.25 bays to align the cages. The stacker cage doesn;t fit right with the notches so you have to bend the notches flat where the cages are going. A bit inconvenient but not noticable once you do it. Once you have the cages mounted and the fans on, its worth the effort.

you COULD TRY to install them on yourself with ZipFlies or something of that sort to the front mesh?
 
Hey m8, thanks very much for the info. I guess ill see if i can find this iCage thing in the UK and if not ill just use cable ties.
