A VERY nice way to cool things is with a case fan attached to the lower
front left side of the case blowing air in.  I did this to my last tower
running Dual PPros, with some other "hot" hardware (TnT video card, 1/2
height SCSI disks) and it cooled the system beyond my belief.  It
produced amazing results and all ya have to do is cut a lil hole on the
side of the case.  Just thought I'd share :-)
