Here is my computer PSU that I turned into a bench top PSU. I took out the normal fan and put in an antec green LED fan that I had, as well as a secondary one I installed on the top.
I added a toggle switch, a red LED indicating it is plugged in (aka dangerous if opened), and a green LED indicating the power has been turned on.
I have 3.5v, 5v, and 12v hook ups as well as two grounds. I decided not to include -12v as I am not in need of it at the moment.
Hope you like it, let me know if you have any questions.

Could you please explain which color wires did you use for the red and green LED's? I am new at this and like your idea of the two LED's.
Thank you!

But I ended up not needing the 10ohm 10w resistor, as my PSU powered up fine as long as I had an LED on the power ON and standby cables (green and purple).
As for the green LED fans, one of them I connected to the original fan power connector and the other one I connected to one of the 12v wires and ground.
Let me know if you have any extra questions.
but i allready made one":)
and it works so im happy:D
