    I have had to revert to using my pc case as an attempt at an in-desk water-cooled pc dramatically failed.

    I need some advice/ help with a couple of things....

    1. I have an 80mm Blow hole on the top of the case that is no longer needed; can anyone suggest anything usefull/ interesting/ stylish to do with it other that fill it, sand it and paint it?

    2. I am currently "mounting" the dual 80mm radiator in the 3.5" hard drive bay mount area, where it sits very comfortably, but is not secured to anything. Does anyone know of a good way to secure it (bearing it mind that the mounting holes are obviously on the front/ back of the rad with the surface to fix it to being at its sides, with a gap of about 4mm either side)??

    I am hoping to get a 120mm rad when I get paid to mount behind the fan shown here:

    Re1: Well style it up to you, but what's wrong with leaving it as a window?
    Re2 -Why not just use some angle aluminum? (and drill some new holes in the drive bay)
