Whoa....chill dude....

:eek:

Research your case a little bit, by make and model. Even serial number if need be. Post it here as well, if you can't find out the answer at the maker's website someone here might know offhand. And there's always Google.

DUDE how do i find out the make and model of my case ...


all i know is its a atx case

:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

There's got to be words and/or numbers on it somewhere. Look all around, inside and out. Also give more words/numbers on the power supply - sometimes cases and PS units come bundled so that may help identify it.

[krypto9]

well the power supply is a ULTRA 300W atx case...

[rockinmale]

From the sound of it so far....It seems to be a generic case and psu.

First off....I'd like to say...**** is your system going to be loud!!
Were talking jet plane engine here. :D

i was just wondering how to see if i can get a case fan...like i mean the power supply and if it fits in case???

Your quite vague with your question?
Could you please rephrase your question and be more specific.

Thanks!

[sm8000]

Yeah, but generic has to be made by someone. Get us all info you can find printed on those things. A lot of makers market their products as "Ultra".

Any chance you can post a picture of what you have as well?

[krypto9]

OK OK

i opened the comp and had a huge look at it and heres everything i found out and i MIGHT have some pics for you too.

ULTRA ATX POWER SUPPLY
DC OUTPUT = 300WATT
OUTPUT VOLTAGE AND CURRENT : +5V=30A, +12V=12A,
-5V=0.5A, -12V=0.8A, +3.3V=14A, +5VSB=1.2A....

INPUT RATING = 115/230V, 60/50 HZ, ~6/3A.....

some numbers that i found on the power supply were =
201040113757...
and...
PX-300RFBUN QC OK....

and a set of numbers i found on the ATX CASE is =
320220006...

OK there now tell me how.....

[krypto9]

From what I can make out in your pictures it looks like you have room for one case fan just below the powersupply and there should be a spot in the bottom front. Just make sure you get fans that will connect to the power supply and not the motherboard.

Ditto what Speedo said, but a 9c is a 92mm fan , too big for the back. In pic #2 , you can see right above the video card , a rounded grill with 4 corner screw holes.Thats the fan location . There should be one also in the bottom front of case , just below the hard drive. Usually cases are set up to mount a 80mm fan in front and 60mm or 80mm in back. But , you have to check the opening and mounting holes. You could mod the case to mount a bigger fan. The long grilled area along the back running vertical allows for cool air to enter . You could possibly add 50 or 60mm fans here. But I think a Slot fan is better, it will fit in a PCI slot area . They move alot of air.
I have seen guys mod their case in front of their hard drives to install a fan .
As for the ATX power supply? You cant put a bigger fan in it. Possibly faster or better cfm, but it requires cutting wires and soldering inside the power supply. The best thing to do to add fans is a Blow Hole in the side panel or Top of the case. Again case modding.

Thats about all I got to say about that....:D

Take your camera, step back a little so we can see the entire case and make sure the lighting isnt so harsh this time and we'll be better able to id your case and tell you what'll fit inside.

[krypto9]

well i was just opening my case the other day to take the pics and i saw that i have another fan in the bottom front...

and i think its a 80 mm fan ..ill open it agian over the weekend sometimes to see the model and brand...

and i noticed that everyone in the replies is talking about the grill shaped holes i got at the back of the case and i wanted to say what about the other rectangle shaped holes beside the grill holes..... can that fit any case fans and im prefering a 80 or 90 mm fan probbly.

and is a coolermaster 90 mm fan good?? with 50.5 air flow....


thx and plz reply agian :t :t :t :t

What are you running for a CPU I can't really tell from the pics.
