i looked on ebay trying to find a clear green case, and i found a 120mm case fan (from coolermaster)that can fit the xbox and had 12v and has the 3 prong connector. i have a dremel and i know how to use it but which type of bit should i use to cut out the window for the 120mm case mod? i was thinking a high speed saw blade or will that mess it up? so yeah is the cooler master 120mm sickleflow case fan good for it? where can i buy cheap cases for the xbox, and what type of bit should i use to cut out the window with the dremel?
edit: i found a case for it, but i still need help with the other stuff

I used the cut off wheels that came with mine and they work just fine. But use on low speed to reduce melting.

i need to know what to hook the 120mm fan up to. i was thinking a 3 pin Y splitter, ill have the original dual fans hooked up to the 12v fan mod (connected to dvd cord) and the 120mm fan will be hooked to the Y splitter and it will get its 12v source from under the motherboard by the power cord plug in area. and the 5v source where the dual fans were would act as somewhat as backup power if needed, since the bottom end of the Y splitter will hook to where the dual fans plugged in. is this a idea good or will this screw up my xbox?

dont use a y splitter as it might use too much power, instead check these out [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] and [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

also make sure there is enough air coming in the console. You might want to consider having 1 fan pulling air in and 1 fan pushing air out, otherwise hot air pockets might get trapped inside and THE 360 DOES NOT LIKE HOT AIR!
