I have a a SK41g
Radeon 9500 pro
250PSU (replaced the original 200 watt)
1gig ram
XP2400+
100gig WD
250gig WD
Plextor 708 DVR
I am concerned with overheating I tried a PCI Slot cooler to help the Video Card
I modified the cooler so the air intake was on the video card side so air could flow over the back of the Radeon, but there really isn't enough clearance between the video and the slot cooler to draw in enough air. Does anyone make a really thin slot cooler?
Thanks!
 
Read my post about G chassis cooling.

I spent hours searching for a thin blower for an SFF case I am working on, and came up with just two in the entire world. One is an interesting "water wheel" design, but only available from one store in New Zealand! The other is more common but still hard to find. Google for "mini system blower" to find it for <$10 in several places. Often has manuf. part # "FC-1000B". 10mm wide. Bracket is a bit larger than normal for some reason and may have to be shaved a few mm to fit in some cases.
 
Neat mod, though in my case I'm actually not looking to cool slots, but a hard drive in an entirely different part of the case, and I need a super thin blower or fan to do the job. A blower is ideal because the 90 degree angle of the air flow allows the HD to be cooled while exhausting air out pre-existing vent holes, without having to cut a 80mm hole in the side of my nice new expensive pretty aluminum case (AOpen A340).
