This project was sparked by my re-joining my F@H team. Reason being was the ambient temperature in my house is never under 79*F anymore. That is TOO HOT! As a result of these crazy temps, I fried all my RAM. I named the project Double Overtime because I only have a day or two to get my computer torn down, modded, and back together working again before my RAM gets in to start FOLDING!
So now I am reworking my case for 100% maximum cooling performance. Things I plan on doing:

man I had a long day.... Let me tell you - Scroll saws (aka Jigsaw) are freaking evil on your hands! I have never had such a finicky tool before..... the strands of metal that I was trimming kept going up into the actuating arm and blowing the machine towards my body and really hurting my wrists too
Ive done lots of cutting (I have these incredible scissors that cut aluminum), Sawing, sanding via rotational grinder on a drill....lolcheap..... Man I wish I could shell out the $$ for a dremel... I cant justify $40 for a power tool that I might not use too often. Im also concerned about how I will open up my hard drive bay area for more air... Im afraid of hurting the integrity of the support beams... but I realllly want to do something to keep my drives at or near ambient. I need a new case lol... Its these FIVE (5) hard drives that are driving me nuts.... Im in the process of mounting my dual fan setup on the top end of my case - I forgot my camera in the car that is in the garage which is behind a door with a locked security system which has a beeping pad that beeps when I open the door. The pad is in my parent's room.... Pics tomorrow morning, I promise ![]()
