I've been having problems keeping the inside of my computer, and the
processor, cool - even after adding extra DC fans. So I have solved
the problem by fitting one of Mr Maplin's 120mm mains-driven fans in
the side of the (tower) casing - which blows quite a lot of ambient
air past the electronics, exhausting through the rear.

Lots of stuff for doing this sort of thing, very cheaply.
Lots of options, from thermostatically controlled fans to little
control panels that can be set to run fans at certain temperatures
from multiple temperature probes, and have lots of blinking lights on.


Thanks. Could you please point to a specific area on the Ebuyer site -
there's a lot of stuff to wade through!
