Here's my attempt at cooling the MCH - criticism/laughter welcome!
View into case from left side.
View into case from front through unoccupied drive bay.
The Ultra HS is just too close to the MCH to mount a fan I reckon. I 'constructed' an air guide from the top of a PET bottle so that the air drawn in (thru left side of case) would reach the MCH. This guide does touch the 9600GT's PCB but I don't think this matters(?). The fan came with my old Athlon64 CPU - it's about 60mm. Will this suffice (assuming I actually manage to generate sufficient heat to warrant this slightly comical arrangement)?
