cooling
 

im going to get fans soon

im trying to find out how big of a fan i need

i measured one of my vents

4x7 cm

or

40x70 mm


how big does my fan for that slot need to be

I'm thinking you'd need a 70mm diameter fan

Correct me if im wrong though

>:)

:P Yup! Definitely 70mm fans...although too many fans sometimes bug me when its very silent at night in my room...dats why I shifted to a full watercooled solution...Now its super silent I can even hear the Hard drive spin. By the way, I'm from the Philippines and its Hot! too damn hot for a Pentium 4 without airconditioning. its a burning 35-37 Deg. C room temp.


CB-Byte
Pentium 4 1.6 @ 2.24 Ghz steady pulse @ 42 deg C iddle.
Asus P4B533
256 MB PC2100 DDR
Asus V3800 TNT2 RIVA :-(
with all the trimmings.

depends on how you measure it...

i would measure the length between the screw holes
and add about 8mm for the frames around the screw holes on the fan

70mm has its advantages though

TMD fan fits in it! :thumbsup:

promotheus, u need to measure it again
