Hello
I am looking for a single side panel with a window for my Thermaltake Soprano because there is a fan hole in it, does anyone know where you can get this except from Thermaltake directly?
Thank you

Thanks for the answer, I would like someone to know where I can get this I was looking before the post but found nothing.
caseking, conrad, K & M don't even have this. -
Again for me to understand better:
You have a side part with a hole and are looking for one without?
But why is that?
(After everything I have explained to you about ventilation in the PC .......)But in case of doubt, simply open the window (with a hole) against a piece of plexi (without a hole ) from the hardware store.

Ask here.
From here I also have my precious piece "Thermaltake" with a side panel.
Middle-this is what mine looks like.

@Paulemann
apparently they didn't get anything like that, at least they didn't get an answer. Sent this morning but no response so far. -
You have to be a little patient.
Incidentally, I had configured a side panel for this when I placed my order (complete computer). -
Now it is officiel

Dear customer,
unfortunately I have to disappoint you. We do not sell the side part individually.
We only get the housing completely delivered.
I just got it by email -
But it was worth a try ...
-------------
Now I would ask from whom and then follow up there ... :) -
What do you mean, I should ask elv where I can get something?
-
If I were you I would do it that way. Maybe you have a German supplier, then further inquiries shouldn't cause any problems.
-
I got an answer

Dear customer,
Unfortunately, I am not aware of anyone who sells the side panels individually.
One possibility would be Ebay.
no hit on ebay eBay: Thermaltake soprano side panel -
Well, in any case, we've exhausted the possibilities.
If you can wait a few years, then I think I will need a new computer, then you can have my case :). -
in the meantime i also thought about whether i should somehow enlarge my case. Just how, maybe screw a second one to the place where the other has its side door. sihe appendix only that both are equal
-
That's a great idea !!
I have something like that in the office I'll take a few photos tomorrow in the light and post them here.
A few tips in advance:
Between the two drive cages for the 5,25 "there is little space for screws (actually none at all ) so you should use thumbscrews (screws that can be screwed on by hand) to attach the drives, as you can't get at them with a screwdriver.
Or, as I'll try next time, assemble it with a hinge on the back so that it can be opened at the front. (maybe choose a housing with screwless LW mounting, would be the simplest variant)It is best to install IDE drives in the right half (but at least all of them in the same half), otherwise you will have problems with the cable routing.
You may have to sand off some material on the front parts, as they usually protrude a bit, or put a spacer between the housing if you don't want to break the fronts.
In any case, it is better to screw them together (and then close the gaps with a car spatula), when welding, in most cases, the housing warps and then no longer stands correctly.
-
So, here are the promised photos:
As you can see, it is not quite finished yet, the fronts still have to be "glued" together with a fiberglass spatula
In addition, a side panel is missing (I have to wait until the weather is nice long enough that I can paint again on the balcony)
Unfortunately, you can't see the color that well, it is black at the bottom and back, and at the top and at the sides (when it's finished, the front too) blue lilac metallic with rainbow tinsel clear varnish
For those who are interested in what's inside:
TSSC DVD burner (18x)
MSI CD burner (52x)
IDE removable frame (converted to USB, so hot plug capable)
D-Link WiFi router with 54 Mbit (out of the original housing and placed on a 5,25 "installation frame)
Internal KVM switch (so that other computers can test on the same periphery)
Floppy disk drive with built-in card reader
Built-in speakers with USB and front audio
a 5,25 drawer (so that you don't always have to search for everything on LAN)
Gigabyte GA-7N400S with 3100+ Athlon XP (Barton with 2,2 GHz)
1 GB Ram
an additional Gigabit NW card
Hauppauge TV card
Nvidia FX5500 graphics card
an Adaptec SCSI (no drives yet)
1x80 GB main disk (5 partitions with different OS)
1x 300 GB slave disk (3 partitions)
and a total of 4 drawers for the removable frame with total. 480 GB
and 2 power supplies, a 650 watt ATX for the "main components" and an AT with 250 watts for the extras that you don't always need. (W-LAN router, built-in loudspeaker, KVM switch, etc.)What is still here and should be added when the opportunity arises:
1 SATA removable frame
1 PCI adapter for PCMCIA cards
Internal USB hub for more hard drives (but maybe I will organize a 2-way NAS housing for installation, then the hub will fall flat)In terms of hardware, it may not be so up-to-date (Graka and Prozzi) but it is "My darling !!"

Cool...
If only the propeller is missing, then it is an all-round device: D.
gruß
Paule manNote: You already have something on it ...
-
I already have the propeller here (a 240 mm fan from which I removed the edge) but I actually wanted to keep it for the plane
No, I was kidding about the plane, but I once saw a "big block" as a computer (a replica of a car engine) and I organized a fan and thought: something had to be built one day.
But as a propeller for an airplane model ..... I actually think the idea is cool (of course only with a computer).
Well let's see, maybe I can think of something else.But first the "monitor computer" and the tool case have to be finished. (phew, I'm up to something)
And when they are done I have to start collecting the parts for the ammunition box (should become a LAN computer for first person shooters) which has been around here for 1 1/2 years.
-
Paulemann is right it looks very good, just ask how many watts do the 2 power packs have? and what do you need 2 for? Is one for the mainboad and the other for the fan and graphics card?
-
Well Ralf, whoever can read has a clear advantage!
Joking aside, but it says above:
one has 650 watts, that is the "real" power supply for MB, hard drives etc. (everything that has to be done with the computer)The second has only 250 watts and is for the "freak stories" such as the converted W-LAN router that sits in the 5,25 "slot (there is nowhere to buy was my idea!) You don't always need such parts and there I have I just thought of an extra AT power supply, which is then switched off when it is not needed (but the switch on the cable had to be in the power supply housing).
In the computer there is also a small switchboard (the five small blue switches in the left front) that makes such devices individually switchable, so the router, the installation boxes and the USB hard drive can now be switched on individually. (and 2 of the 6 fans, which are then reserve when it's summer again)
The lighting is then connected to this switchboard, it only has to light up when you are at a LAN party, at home it only consumes unnecessary electricity (and produces unnecessary heat)
