Red led case fan advice needed

KMKTEXAN · 13-April-04, 10:13 AM

I would like to but some red led case fan for my case. Can anybody recommend fans that are "true red" in color (not orange or pink). I recently bought a Sunbeam cold cathode red fan that is actually pink in color. I've been considering these fans from SVC:

and

I know Coolermaster makes a red led fan, also.

Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Kevin

The Coolermaster Look The Best To Me, They Got A Good Strong Colour.

Bare in mind if you have a fan controller, the led's will dim... but u should know that... its common sense really...

hope this helps,

I have 2 of these fans http://www.svc.com/12redquadled.html and they are a good shade of red; but then again what I see might not be the same red you see and therefore might not be what you are looking for.

P.S. here they are in 80mm http://www.svc.com/8025-clear-4led-red.html.

From What I Can See In The Picture They Look More Of An Orangy Red... Rather Than Plain Red.

These Look Pretty Cool

IMO opinion i think you should save a little money and take a trip over to dragonmodz and just pick up some of there uber bright red LEDS. If you want red and you want the brightest for your buck that seems the best route to go if you wanna save a little cash and get your mod on. Its pretty much an easy swap of LEDS as long as they are rated at the same voltage and amperage, and if not then just pick up some resistors at radio shack. If your interested in going this route then just ask around cause we have tons of people that know what their doin and have been down your road. DIY is always the best way to go. Even if you mess it up you still gain experience.
