Case Made of Fans
Author: Gabriel TorresDate: February 15, 2006 - 7:15 AM

This guy from New Zealand solved his overheating problem with a very curious (and funny) solution. He built up a case using... fans! There are 70 of them. Really amazing, see the pics below. If you want more info on this project, check his website at http://www.peteredge.orcon.net.nz/casepics.htm. Funny enough he claims that it didn't improve CPU temperature at all, however the system/motherboard temperature was pretty stable at 23-24º C (73~75º F). This solution should be very noisy...
