clocker i have also seen the InnovaKonvekt-o-Matic Passive Radiator and i think it will work ok, but if you love leaving your computer on forever yhan this might not be for you... over time it will gain heat... however that is an example of what it will take fo a passive cooler, of course you could always tuck this cooler in the fridge... (i don't know if mini fridges are worth the cost, but you could snugg that right next to your comp...)

ewww i just thought, what if you take the InnovaKonvekt-o-Matic Passive Radiator and put it in a tank of something, like liqaud oxigen... that would give you extreme cooling potential, the case might not need any fans, simply because all the really hot stuff ie CPu north briodge, hdds, PSU, vid card, are having thier heat removed from the case... just an idead that has been done before...

What struck me about that pic, VB, is that with all his interest in maximizing/ directing airflow, he doesn't appear to have taken even the most rudimentary steps towards clearing his case of obstructions.
The wiring is a mess.

I suppose that if you're willing to run your case wide open then that's no big deal, but even so...

I also think that his 90mm fan on the case back is ludicrous. It is so blocked by his duct that I don't see how it could be very effective.
It should be on the roof...

clock you seem to have endless amounts of time, so test it for yourself

Actually I have another idea.

And it doesn't involve cardboard and duct tape...

Post whore.

I&#39;m working on my idea.
Pics will follow if results are good.

If they aren&#39;t, then just forget I said anything...

Yeah I know. The nerve of him to even put a picture of it like that on the internet.
