[andrew.cook]

have a antec performance p182 case with standard fans would like to replace with these http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.html?NEX-S12CMF#top

would it be a straight swap and is it a difficult job? have a gb p35-ds3r mobo should i or can i connect directly to this?

Yes, it's a straight swap and shouldn't be difficult.
I'd connect directly to the power supply via the supplied Molex connector.

Just disconnect, unscrew, and replace :)


The Nexus 120mm Real Silent case fan is equipped with a double sided 4-pin power connector and a 3-pin motherboard connector. This allows you to connect the case fan directly to the power supply or to the motherboard.
Either or, make sure you don't use both ;)

It's easy to, take care on pushing it in tho. Don't press hard.
