Default An attempt at a air cooling mod.
Ok so I decided I would try taking apart a box fan and putting it in my system somehow, or just on the side. So here are some pictures of it so far. Took like 5 minutes to get this far now I am stuck on how to put it on. Got any suggestions? I didn't take too many pictures but here is one of it before, after I took all the casing off, and me running it without the case. Was pretty fearsome little bugger. This 500hp boxfan will rip ur face off.

This is my case except I cut a 120mm fan hole on the top, and don't have the 250mm fan on the side.

That's what I'm trying to figure out. Maybe hover boards? Or maybe cut out a huge ass circle on the roof of my case that goes down low so I could have it down below the top level of the case and then hang it with something. Idk. I will put up a diagram and you guys comment please.

I offer no support. This will end badly. I'd be happy to be to proven wrong, but I'm sure it won't happen.
