Damn that noisy-ass fan in the my gaming PC. It does cool well when the rest of the case has good ventilation, though. Nevertheless, it is just too noisy. Thus, I have temporarily removed it. I plan on getting a better heatsink/fan combo soon. Until then, I've made a somewhat stop-gap solution to my cooling problem.
By using my skills in shaping cardboard to my will (I have lots of boxes from things shipped to me) and in ghetto-rigging things, I have created this. While it cools a bit worse than the HO (high-output) fan did, it does so a hell of a lot quieter. I'm even sitting right next to it at the moment and it doesn't even bother me in the slightest.
Plus, to complete the RICEd-up look I even plopped on a completely useless spoiler. Since many idiots think big spoilers make their slow-ass cars run faster, maybe it will make one or more of my case fans do the same. Who knows?
Yea, I saw you looking at it with envy in your eyes. Well, you can't have it. Ha, ha, ha. You'll have to gather up your own cardboard and use your own staples and superglue to meld them together.
Yes, it is a temporary solution. I don't plan on keeping my gaming PC looking like that.
Thomas, thomas -- we're going to get you a new case this weekend, somehow. Though, we should keep the spoiler. Some paint on it would be nice.
yeah, i'm diggin that spoiler. I AM ENVIOUS.
