just purchased my lovely soltek sff. i love it. its so small and easy to carry to my many lanparties. anywho...this one has a side sort of like a pci slot blower fan, that is on right side of case and sucks air from inside and exhausted out the back.
i'm lookin for those people who have modded their sff to accommodate an 80mm side hole.
also the psu has a fan on the underside and exhausts air thru psu. this makes a 90 degree turn which i'm sure doesn't help for flow. has anyone added like a 60mm fan on the back side of the psu to pull more air thru. w/ that fan on the underside of the psu, i have my heatsink fan blowing up bc if i had it blowing down it wouldn't do any good w/ each fan pulling from same area (since they are right on top of each other)
[^] psu blowing up
|v| heatsink blowing down
my nice illustration, remember i have them both blowing up. so if took out the psu fan, i could turn my heatsink fan to blow down on the heatsink. have my 80mm side exhaust pull that air out, and 60mm fan exhaust heat from psu.
i'm assuming addin the 80mm fan would add noise over the pci like slot blower fan.
pics of your work would be great and much appreciated!!!
