E7400 cooling fan advice please. (Lighting)

[Shake&Bake]

What am I looking for and where would I get my hands on it?
I'm thinking of perhaps going with an LED option, but they're pricy ffs
Maybe next month

Been looking at Prophecy's Shop, but what are other local options in CT?
May go 2nd hand, but not to keen on it.
Unless it's a really nice one for cheap.

Thinking of kitting my chassis out with some other lighting, not sure really.

So any advice would be appreciated.

take pix of how your boxx looks now, does it even have a window?

Nah it doesn't - but in the next month (or rather end of May) I'm looking to pick up a 2nd hand box with a nice window.

I'm just looking for ideas of what would be good to use for lighting.

Any tips/suggestion on the cooling fan for the CPU in the meantime as well?

If you look at Esquire's ad here: http://specials.esquire.co.za/capetown.html

2nd one down on the left (looks ghey really - the damn pink)
But something along those lines with a nice big window on the side.

Wouldn't touch cheap cases for above average builds. Look out for a second-hand decent brand case. Build quality is much better etc. Or perhaps even a new Cooler Master Elite series case. Some of them have windowed side panels.

i.e. Coolermaster RC-310-BWN1 , Elite 310 , black with Blue highlight , Windowed side panel , No psu : tools free ; 2 x front usb + audio in/out - 4x 5.25", 1x 3.5", 6x 3.5" hidden - support upto 3x 120mm fan - atx

These cases are quality!

As for CPU cooler, have a look at Zalman products.

i.e Zalman CNPS7000C-AlCu Led : support silent mode with no noise/vibration ; aluminum+copper FHS + 92mm blue led fan + fan mate2 , 1350/2600rpm , double ball bearing , noise 18/27db - for Amd 754/939/940/AMx/1207 , Intel LGA775 cpu
