PC Fans for 360
« on: August 18, 2011, 11:35:08 AM »
Hey guy's I was wondering I want to put PC fans in my 360. I have a couple questions I found this diagram of some connections near the Power section of the 360 http://i612.photobucket.com/albums/tt208/psp_kevin17/DSC00756.jpg  as you can see it has 12V, 5V and Ground now what i was thinking is it possible to strip the wires of the PC fan and connect it to those like to the 12V or 5V If Yes How so? Where would I connect the Negative. Also if it is not possible this way how would I do it i have researched but found nothing thanks guy's for your help :)

Yes should be possible not sure you will have room in the normal xbox 360 case, so maybe you could dremel or saw a hole out. add some leds and you got a pretty cool xbox 360

 :w00t:  YAY! lol :p Anyways ya thats what i was thinking of doing using a dremel on the case cut out to the size of the fan bolts to keep it in place and then wiring it to there but where would the negative wire hook up to? Also should I use the 5V or 12V? And last but not least If my cable doesn't reach can i use any of these? https://www.acidmods.com/forum/index.php/topic,28596.0.html these show the points on the mobo for power could I use those if I really need to?

12v is the standard and just put it to the ground.

EDIT: There might be a ground that is only active when the xbox 360 is powered on, but I don't know

If your looking to add PC fans to your xbox 360 i sugest yous follow this one , THis is the proper way to add a fan to your xbox 360 , keeping it internal and if I do say so myself one of the best mods I have seen that is perfect for someone who wants to keep it very neet and clean looking.
