I got the vertical GPU module for the Lian-Li O11D- Mini. Was rather gutted when I thought I wouldn’t be able to use the exhaust fan til I decided to make good use of the cable ties.

It works sure, I tried that once. But the noise was killing me.
No matter how tight the fan was, it would always be way louder than just screwing it in place. It was like a fucking helicopter lmao

Yup. Works fine for me in one of my Proxmox builds to hold a 92 mm fan for cooling my SAS controller and 10Gb NIC

I’ve seen worse.
I’ve probably *done* worse over the decades.
i mean, ive done it before when second hand cases didnt come with fan screws
My brain went into the gutter.
It works until it very suddenly without warning doesn’t work
What fans are those 😳
D: YOU MONSTER!!!
Is it useful to have two exhaust fans next to each other?
I did this for my push/pull config on my radiator when I ran out of screws that were long enough

Had to do a similar thing lol. I had my dad 3d print a 140-120mm plate so i could fit my fans and i ran out of screws
If It works It works
the fuck you need this many fans for
