    Has anyone used something like this to cool a heat sink? If so do you have any pictures?

    (should this be in modding? :worried: )

    mmm a blower :) :baby:

    havent actually modded one like this, but have owned an aero7 :)lol: i always get interesting design coolers :)). be sure you keep this in mind when mounting :)
    i know, crappy pic, it took me like 20seconds :p

    the position of the blower is a little exagerated, its not meant to be THAT far off center, but you get the idea

    well i think it will be hard to make all the air hit the HS.. but the aero7 as mentioned has a blower:

    they work quite well, provides a higher pressure..
    but i have no idea if anyone has attempted what you are thinking of..

    Carbon, I've been planning to do the exact same thing with one or two of those on my sp-94, but i couldnt find a uk supplier, do you know of one?

    If not, i'll order 1 or 2 extra and you can buy one from me depending how they go if you want?

    i was hoping that someone would have already done it so i could decide of if its worth it or not

    [edit] but if you do find out how much they are let me know and ill make a decision before you buy one [/edit]

    If they're a decent price I might be in for a couple (no more than 4, honest) :D

    Going to email the place tonight. I'll let you guys know when they reply.

    Edit: email sent

    edit 2: quick reply received they'll do it.

    How many do you want guys?

    and which colours?

    email me with how many you want of each colour, and we can sort out payment, I will need you to pay me before I send payment, and I'll probably get them sent to mister_tad while he is in the US, and get him to bring them back, save having to pay duties.

    Using the shipping calculator, to ship 8 of them to me @ wrexham would cost $46.75 for a 3-5 day service, or $40.00 for a 4-10 day service.

    Works out to $20 each, or £87.46 if i order 8 in total.
