No way, where do you work if you don't mind me asking? I was there yesterday too :P

 

Had to pick up something stuck at UPS up there. I work close to Indy actually :P

The projects never end in my line of work.

Well I live about 2 minutes from that UPS center actually. Rather mind-blowing to think someone actually exists from LTT in indiana too :P 

You drive down to Indy from FW daily?

Just nab that if your so worried, zip tie the extra cables and keep it as a backup.

you dont need to have the fans still run after the pc shuts down because it isn't producing heat anymore. I know it looks cool, but  I dont think it exists

 

 

 

 

Exactly once the hardware is off there is no point in cooling them it doesn't have a benefit. 

 

Now as for what you want to keep them on so "they look cool" and simple 12v rechargeable battery between the powering molex and the fan. then they would stay on even hafter the system is off. 

if your motherboard supports charging off of usb when the pc is off then you could get a 5 to 12v inverter and hook your fans up to a usb header.

I could make you one if you want.

I  have GameServer`s And VOIP servers the only price is that you have fun on them.
