Ok but this begs the question....WHO CARES?!

This is a HAF932 thread and nobody is asking you if you like it or not. If you dont like it then good for you, create a thread for your Cosmos which btw pales in comparison to the HAF.

I love my HAF and would never own a case called a "Spedo". Sound like something a weird guy would wear at the beach.

Sorry for my strong reply..

Has anyone put a double rad in the front? Is there much modding needed? I'm getting an MCR320 and a MCR220 and I'm putting the triple in the top and I want to get the 220 in the front if there's room.

That's ok for the mistake, we did have fun with the spedos.

I forget where I saw the thread but somebody did do this. He drilled out the hard drive cage rivits and moved it back. Then put the radiator where the front fan goes.

Now my own question. I have been inspired to do some work on my HAF before I put anything in it. I'm going with the industrial look and I'm going to paint the inside black. I want to paint the drive cages and PSU stand yellow. What I'm curious about is:

1. I got satin black for the interior. Was this a good choice?
2. I have a Gigabyte MB. Would shining White LED's on it show its blue color scheme despite all the red LED fans?
3. I want another 230mm red LED fan for the side. I've only seen them at Performance-PCs. I was all set to buy it but they wanted $11.00 for shipping. Thats hard for me to stomach, especially with their already high prices.
Is there another place to get one?

**sniperbob** · 05-10-2009, 05:27 PM

satin black is a matte or flat finish paint, so it will look very similar to the exterior of your case. In my opinion, i think it was an excellent choice. I'm ordering a HAF for my brother (as soon as Newegg makes there stupid free shipping promo code actually work) and we will be painting it flat black inside.

**surfhick** · 05-10-2009, 05:36 PM

Thanks for your quick reply sniperbob.
Oh, and I found the fans at CM's website. Still outragous shipping but at least they are $5.00 cheaper.

**ben805** · 05-12-2009, 06:03 AM

Do you guys use the wheel that came with it? man they are very cheaply made and fragile, one of the wheel broke off soon after I installed it. I have some extra wheels that came with those plastic storage bin/container I bought from walmart few years ago (similar to this: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/produ...uct_id=6004473), they are the same size, just needed to pull them out of the metal pin and they fit perfectly, much stronger than those POS that came with case!

**r1rhyder** · 05-13-2009, 03:59 AM

Man, what a butt ugly case.

**leathal** · 05-13-2009, 06:06 AM

Nice duck tape job!

Guys do you think its a bad idea to use the back fan as an intake?
I have an air duct to pull fresh air from the outside that I can connect to this back fan. My idea is that the side fan is way to low compared to where my heatsink fans are thus most of the fresh air is been taken by the video cards and the front fan air is passing through the HDDs first so since the case has a BIG 230mm fan at the top I thought that using the back fan to get some fresh air would be good for my CPU since that air will be coming directly towards the heatsink.
I can use a push pull config if needed to make it even better?
What do you guys think?

**leathal** · 05-14-2009, 03:29 AM

The HAF-932 is COOL! DROOL!

I took measurements of the holes and spacing at the top of the case, its seems the BI GTX360 will fit without any modification as the spacing on the RAD is same as whats on the case. 105mm between first and second hole, and 15mm between fan holes, I am looking around now to see were I can buy a BI GTX360 and get it shipped to Canada!

I also need to figure out what is the best solution with respect to the fans, push or pull!!!?

give us a pic of ur system so we can understand better. you can use a 120mm fan on the top-left section of the side panel to aim directly at your CPU. what cpu cooler r u using?

having all ur fans as intake will give u lots of dust that will have nowhere to exit..

Here is my WC rig with two rads

**Anemic** · 05-20-2009, 04:03 AM

Just got my HAF and I have taken it apart to pain it. Really nice case, cant wait to get started!

**surfhick** · 05-20-2009, 06:28 PM

Satin black with yellow drive cages. Just need to put it back together.

Well, after another coat. I'm glad I did this. CM's paint job was < steller.

**Duke-Nukem** · 05-20-2009, 06:38 PM

Wow, I am jealous. I was going to paint mine but never had time. I might go back and paint the interior a pastel orange and use some black lights to light it up. Here is my case:

**paul_** · 05-23-2009, 05:55 AM

Hmmm... I think I'll have to do my first build log with this case. Some of the options like moving the HDD cage back and putting a second rad in sound very, very cool... Still deciding on the exact parts list. I hope I don't need to have a single rad hanging off the back for the GPU...

**[XC] Synthetickiller** · 05-23-2009, 06:29 AM

Stupid question. Is this case held together by rivets or only screws?

**surfhick** · 05-23-2009, 09:37 AM

Some of the outside parts are held on by screws. Allen head screws. The Side window is held on by those rivits that you put through the hole and flatten the ends on. The core of the case is held together by regular 1/8" rivits.

Thanks.

One other question. It looks like you'd lose two of your 5.25" drive bays if you install a triple rad, right?

Yes, but it does have six of them.
