This resolved two issues - 1.) Where he could keep his goats, and 2.) How to keep the grass on the sides of the holler manageable. Cost to me: ZERO ...and guess how much it cost me to plow my 5 acres of bottom in the holler? ZERO. Gave a mate a complete system and secured my plowing for two years (any time I wanted it done). ...and guess how much it cost to clear off all the poplars, walnuts, pines, birches, oaks and a few cherry trees? ZERO. The mill came and cut'em up, and I got half the profits. HA (grin) Now I didn't mind getting out once in a while with a scythe to get some exercise, but that was by choice, mate.

Re: [newbie] How cool!
Stephen; FYI,...Wallabees are shoes in Canada, not animals. About cooling your case, HP started fabricating plenums ( square or rectangular tubes made of plastic or metal that usually act as a path for air to travel -ie; in air conditioning systems in large buildings) for many of their newer cases. These plenums are hard-mounted inside the case and extend from just above the CPU to the back of the case where they expel warm air through a grill. Most of them have an additional fan mounted inside, and attached where the plenum meets the back of the case. These fans help the CPU fan by sucking air out of the case as the CPU fan picks up the warm air from the CPU. I thought you might want to know in case you have some materials on-site that you can use to duplicatre this. If you get a chance to look inside an HP pavilion desktop PC, you should see what I'm talking about. Hope the info helps (?)

LOL! > > Seriously, though,nice shoes! > > Lanman Ok - wallabies live near rocky places - they're smaller version of the kangaroo - here, on the flood plain below the 400+ metre escarpment, we'd have "regular" kangaroos - if it weren't for civilisation... Anyways, the Thermaltake forces air down from the fan THROUGH the block - the fan on the outside of the case is forcing air DOWN THROUGH to the Thermaltake...the fan next to the Thermaltake is sucking air OUT of the case...the fan near the lower front of the case is blowing air towards the front of the case - to cause the flow of air to not "deaden" below the hard drives. The PSU fan is also sucking air out of the case. I've got another 120mm fan - same as the one already mounted outside of the case - that I'm going to mount so that it would be forcing air into the lower front section, with a PVC elbow that's cut and modded to then force the air UP at the HD's, and have an 80mm fan mounted in the top plate of the case to suck exhaust out and up. I've created a 'filter' from a postoffice CD envelope with a piece of foam in it that sits over the 120mm fan - to limit dust going into the case - and have another for the next fan. With the current fan/filter setup, there really wasn't much dust in the case - mostly in the PSU because it's, well, cluttered, and doesn't have very good airflow. My next PSU is going to have the ducted fan that sits above the actual PSU - sucking the dust/hot air out (as hot air rises, ay?). If I had the cash, I'd try to do a watercooling setup - but that's like $300 - and well, I got kids...so I can't justify it to the wife. This fan, the Thermaltake Volcano 7, I justified because the guy at the fair wanted $45, and I pulled out $35 and said "Hey man, this is all I got" and well, he took it...(I'm sure he still made money on it...) - and it's a much better fan than the one that came from Intel with the Celery, er, Celeron... My goal is to have the CPU live at 20C - and since this is just a cheapo case that I can hack/whack to death (and I've got heaps of case parts laying around) I'm trying to come up with "forced air cooling" techniques for doing so...I'm also trying to build a "forced air box" that would have four 120mm fans forcing air through a 2.5cm tube directly onto the CPU block assembly, and another 2.5cm tube blasting directly onto the hard drives...(might even remove the HD's from the system and put them into another box and cool them seperately...)
