Well... after work I am going to go to home depot and buy 20' of 4" diameter flexible ducting because my computer is in a corner of my room about 10+ ft away that has almost zero airflow. What I plan to do is attach a 120mm fan to the intake of the duct near the window (in the winter)/air conditioner (in the summer) and have it wall plug powered (by 12v adapter of course). This will flow cool air directly from my ac/window into the rear of my computer. Thoughts?

Retrospekt

Many people have done this before, and it works great. One warning though:

If you see any kind of condensation forming, turn the computer off and take the tube out immediately. Condensation can kill a computer very quickly.

Get something like this and stick a few in the tube and you'r case to absorb any rogue condensation. You can probably find it at home depot.

Try and keep the rear as exhaust (think flowbench) and as retrospekt said, watch out for condensation (I've never done this but sounds like it could cause issues for you during the summer monhths). Good luck.
