i have no clue what this means?

 

[The Master Chief]

Means like taping a fan to a heat sink, or making some bizarre way to attach a fan to a component.

 

[MR_Plow]

It's probably referring to putting a stationary fan (like you would use to cool your house...but the mobile kind) in front of your open pc case.
I don't think it's actually a "legit" term...

 

[Em1nenceFr0nt]

anything you do to Rig a fan into place for cooling.

Zip ties, velcro, chewing gum hot glue, etc.

Or using a milk jug for a res. or using an old garden hose for tubing..

You get the idea'r

 

[tipsycoma]

It means strapping on 80mm fans to components or using some random type of cooling method that is unprofessionally done or unique to your own situation.

 

[u238]

It's how hardcore users cool their rigs.

 

[noobclocker1277]

oh cool. fair enough

 

[Nautilus]

It's like putting some dry ice into a plastic bag and leave it on your components.

Just anyway of cooling something and having it look ghetto

Example: Zip tie / rubber band fans

Ghetto means: a ghetto is now described as a "portion of a city in which members of a minority group live; especially because of social, legal, or economic pressure.

Therefore ghetto cooling is like driving through the ghetto with your PC strapped on top of your car so the air hits your rig and cools it.

[sLowEnd]

It's basically cooling that is rigged up using cheap and/or unusual parts like cardboard, duct tape, zip ties...etc
