I've been researching the best way to cool my PC case and I came to conclusion that the a very good/cheap way to increase the air circulation is to use fan ducts. I will install a 120mm bottom front fan and build a duct from this fan to the chipset/heatsink. I want the air to blow near the CPU - not over it. Now, here is a part of the project I'm not sure it will work: I want to build another duct going from the cpu fan (which blows the hot air out of a CPU) to the side fan of the Enermax PS (which blows the air into the PS and then the second PS fan blows it out of the case).
Please let me know if this can work.
My setup:
XP 1600+ and I just ordered swiftech 462 with Pabst fan. For the front I bought 120mm Panaflo.
If needed I will place a 80mm Zalman fan just below PS to blow air out.
