Hairdryer cooler for heatsink ?

[phpdog]

Hi ,

Has anyone every tried using a big hairdryer on the cold setting instead of a fan above there heatsink ?

I was amazed at the power and cold air that it produced compared to my strongest heatsink fan ( TT Smart fan II on the V9 )

Im gonna try this for real as soon as i can get a jig to hold the dryer in place .

If anyone else has tried this please let me know and tell me what results you had .

Never tried it, uses too much power plus is way too loud imo.

Hrmm, from 2.6ghz to hairdryers? Hehe, I don't know the specifics to electricity and magnetism, but that might cause some interference with your components.

gives a new meaning to blow up your pc!

Hair dryers give off way to much EMF. Read the CPUC study of power lines and cancer, I doubt you would want to use a hairdryer after that.

heh, im imagining him putting the hairdryer in his case, and then forgetting its on hott air, and then owning his cpu. blahaahha

Screw that little blowdrier $hit! I'm putting a leaf blower into mine - it's called the Smart Fan II.

heh, i used to use a 24inch square house fan pointed right into my case, like, i taped it to the open left side. Kept my celeron 366@550 really nice and cool. haha, old school cooling solutions.

I thought most of the high speed deltas and tornados sounded like hairdryers anyway.
