I've got hp pavilion xt926 (a boxed mATX system). The airflow is awful...
CDs used to come out of the drive hot before I realized that the only case
fan (back) was blowing air into the case. Now that it's an exhaust fan, I
don't need the oven mitts to change discs.
I'm looking at buying a new motherboard and overclocking the Duron 900
that's in there now (would buy a new case if I had the $$). I'm concerned
about the heat. Does anyone know of a simple vent or screen that will
install in an empty 5.25 drive bay to provide better circulation? I'd hate
to just leave a hole in the front of the case, but that's probably better
than spontaneous combustion.
Thanks in advance,
Tom
