Where on the computer case is the fan mounted?

I just bought the Vastech 80mm UV Reactive UV LED Fan. It came with screws and a 4 pin molex power adapter. I already have a fan on my computer right now, but I want to add this additional one. My power supply has enough room to support it. I just need to know where a good place would be to physcially install it without too much hassle. Thanks.Where on the computer case is the fan mounted?
I would install it in the front of the case, usually there are vents low in the front, make sure you have the fan sucking in air from the outside.Where on the computer case is the fan mounted?
In my experience the fan is IN not ON the case.
in most cases there are atleast 2 places to put a fan usually one in front and one in back
well you do not want to to take the air circulation of the other fan away so the best place to put a new fan for you tower is by cutting a hole into the side of the case and mounting it there
install it near the SMPS, externally if possible.





or outside of pannel where it is pored.





BOL

There should be a circular grill with 4 holes around it at the back near the power supply, or at the front (look inside the case at the bottom) if there are no open holes you will need to cut one into your case.
Well the best place i can think of is you could cut a hole in the side of the tower and mount it there.
It can be mounted anywhere, prefrably on the inside of the computer LOL.





Anyways, most of the time it's located at the back near wear the NIC cards are and what not. Or some now (the more modern ones) are on the side, the cool looking cases like the fiber glass are on the side.





If there's no place to put it, try making a blow hole and then instead of having a blow hole put the fan where you just made the blow hole at


ok!


Good LUCK!
If i could only put holes on the top, i'll put that fan on the top to fill some air inside and one exhause fan on the back. Just to circulate the air.
