xg4m3rch1ckx Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 My friend and I were bored, so we decided to cool a computer we built with a standard house fan... I don't have the computer's specs, we just made it from some spare parts. The computer itself. The computer running on windows XP!!!

Andrewr05 Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Thats pretty funny right there. I'd have mounted it the other way though so the fans blow onto the components though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildman2 Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Need to get another box fan and put both together to create a high tech push/pull setup.set the motherboard perpendicular to the fans.Overclock and put in a room with no heat.Who needs that expensive Amish heater anyway.

Crow47 Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 I once put a room fan up next to my computer once when I was overclocking my quad and i still had a stock cooler. Surprisingly ineffective for cooling processors... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprisingly ineffective for cooling processors... actually as ghetto as it sounds i am doing that exact thing right now and its pretty effective for me. its just a desk fan but its doing wonders until i get my new case... check my profile for a pic of it... its ghetto Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben333 Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 (edited) I bet ben333's been doing it for ages lol. Quiet you... Box fans go on the side of the case, blowing out Or spaced a few inches from the case blowing in. I like this one though, looks cool and probably does help cooling a bit by moving the air around the parts. I would worry though about the fan's electric motor having magnetic waves or something but I might be wrong.
