[/quote] Do it. Activate ninja mode and do it! I don't really have any head management problems but I just want to try how this works! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Yeah, I don't have any trouble either. But I'm all for making life easier. Haha. EDIT: Well damn, just checked that computer in the fax room... nothing like what Stuie has pictured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vendetta_revived Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Really? They are usually found on most cabinets on the left side of the cpu (have been on the left on all the cpu's I've ever seen). It doesn't even need breaking, I just looked and it was screwed on so I unscrewed it and washed it and good as new now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, my boss could have already taken it out to use on another one of his computers... I'll see if Stuie can't find me a good place to find one online somewhere...

vendetta_revived Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 About the cpu mod though,I used it and it worked quite well! But what are those things made up of? Steel? I may be just overthinking but is it safe to put coals on those and then smoke? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonflymike Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 [quote name='Stuie' timestamp='1316231811' post='524227'] Looked around my garage for some, Didn't have any but I did find something that works just as well. I think someone else did this before. [img]http://i51.tinypic.com/iyh6qc.jpg[/img] Screens from CPU Fans and Power Supplies. [/quote] Very nice!

Stuie Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I would just call small local computer places. They can probably pull one out of an old system for a couple bucks. New systems don't really use these much anymore. they just drill the power supplies for ventilation or use plastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] http://www.electronix.com/80mm-fan-cover-p-12294.html unless you have a DIY computer place near you (I think I have one near here I"m going to check it out) I LOVE that idea (unless one of the dozens of CPUs we have in the basement have one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Thanks Stu and Pat! I think I may just go ahead and order from that site. Stuie, do you think it's worth it to buy one and use all the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
