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:

Success is in the details.

Don't know about your fans, but my fans are about as loud as my PC is now...don't wanna double teh loudness, im trying to make it quieter ;)
