THA_monkey Posted June 7, 2003 Report Share Posted June 7, 2003 That is the most Ghetto computer modification I have ever seen. OMG the guys at HardOCP would be proud of its Ghettoness . The guys at futuremark would probably crucify you...[futurermark modder voice]it would look so terrible behind a window[/futurermark modder voice]. At least your Hdd is safe now.

Mr. Burns Posted June 7, 2003 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2003 thanks for the kind words monkey B) Pc-fre@k just told me of an idea, i could replace the cardboard legs by pegs made out of long screws with rubber at the end of it gonna work on that now.. need to find rubber..

Mr. Burns Posted June 7, 2003 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2003 ok i've done what pc-fre@k suggested, and behold..! the temp went down to 45 !!! Thanks pc-fre@k!... apparently changing the cardboard legs for pegs made of screws has increased the airflow under the fans: therefore more fresh air can be pumped to the hard disk... here's a pic (i uplaoded it via the new ftp thingy B) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PC-fre@k Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 I am gonna add some sound absorbing stuff too my pc, I'll make pics when it is finished . I hope I won't hear a thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tha_rooster Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 ive been thinking of that too but i'm afraid the sound absorbing material will also act as an insulator and will thus make my case temp higher . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
