I did before I got the controller, it wasn't terrible and I did sleep through it. But, the noise level of the fans on low is near silent which is much nicer at night.

I'm going to run my case fans off the fan hub connected to the Mix as well, i'm no good with wires though so instead of doing a bodge job on some molex to 3pin cables I have lying around I have ordered one off Ebay that will do the job.

That's actually how I did it! One of my fans had the 3pin + male/female molex. I connected the 3pin to the fan controller and the molex into the fan hub, which then allows for 8 fans to be controlled on the channel which the 50w per channel handles easily.

Hello, I am Rob Teller

NZXT Product Development.

I've thought about getting cable extensions, but it was sort of on the bottom of my list for upgrades. About a month ago I had no SSD, a GTX260, and had the H2 without a window.

To be fair, I really only made that clear in the Switch posts, but I had a similar thought.

Thanks I don't think I have seen an air cooled Switch... Other than SieB's incredible MATX build

Haha might as well settle this now, the less said about the H2 on OC3D the better, I am sure. Yes I had an H2, it was a good case and it fit my needs at the time. I'm not getting ready to jump into watercooling, so it is the Switch for me

oops was just poking fun at ya no offense intended IMHO all cases have there strong weak points and not all cases please everyone. As a computer builder for well over a decade I've seen my share of what some call bad cases and imho were pretty decent ones. I've never laid hands on an H2 so i cant comment completely on it nor should I of made that joke. Please accept my apologies

[Retell]

Haha, no worries. I just didn't want a spark to turn into a forest fire
