So, I'm putting a machine together. The case chosen doesn't have any fans supplied, no problem as I happen to have some 120mm fans. Anyhoo, my question is thus...the case provides holes for the fans, but nothing to screw the screws into, if that makes sense. I'm not left wondering how I'm going to attach the fans to the case, any ideas? |

All the fans I've bought have come with a set of screws included... |

With things on the other end? I've got screws, but nothing to screw them into. Perhaps some new 120mm fans are in order, it's entirely possible bits have been lost over time. |

Ah no, the Fan screws put a thread straight into the fan chassis plastic, rather than screwing into a nut. |

Yeah, I agree, the rubber mounts are worthwhile. |

Yup, I'd got with the rubber mounts as well. The very few PC's I've put fans in have all had rubber mounts and so much the nicer for it. |
