I went other route, i made Y-splitter with fan JST (not sure about connector name here) connector which is inserted into motherboard light output, then one tail goes to light, one back to PSU fan, so fan only works when light is on. This is much cheaper and eco-friendly then buying new PSU.

Forgot to tell, i also added voltage regulator board before fan to reduce its speed..

Nice mod! I installed mw psu not only because it has auto shutdown, but also because I don't trust Chinese power supplies :) I'm used to working with mean well, I fully support other power supplies, and I will be glad if you write a .md file about yours upgrade
