How much does on of those fans cost?
I don't think your idea would work very well with the case closed. ;)Quote:

A pretty simple and resourceful idea :)
Just don't get one of these near it :lol:

:) i nearly made that mistake
I wish I coulda shown you my old setup. Had a large cooler, 32x18x32, right next to the side of my pc. Thread is too old though. It cooled my cpu down about 8 C and case about 5.
damn, any cooler would have been a fridge
well i've decided to go up market, forget fans.,
i've got a monkey
and a large palm leaf,
hes wofting it ten to the dozen
i pay him peanuts!
Yeah, I had this setup as well.
But when i put my case on top of my desk next to my monitor it just didnt work out...
...the fan would blow creating "wave-like" vibrations on my screen.
good idea if your case is nowhere near your monitor :)
now he tells us..........Quote:
