    In total honesty its a lot quieter than my delta "screamer!" on my cpu. I think that fan was actually quite expensive, but we ripped it up anyway! :)

    On a different note, does anyone know if maplin still do the cold cathode lights, there web page says they're discontinued. just wonderin if thats just for online :S Cheers

    If they get too bad you could always wrap the motor in iron and shield it...

    LOL! That fan cools you off for a different reason than computer fans cool your computer off. It cools you off because of your perspiration and natural skin moisture. It cools off your computer through a process called forced convection. Big difference. But judging by the sheer mass of the thing (and hoping you have a filter so it doesn't suck in your cat), I think it will do fine to push cool air in. Who knows, might even be better for computer cooling then cooling people =).

    I've known people to put their PC's in a spare fridge. It's annoying always opening the door though. Plus routing the cabled through. Anyway, the main problem is condensation. Bad stuff if you like your computer =).
