Installing A Side Case Fan

I was just going to ask if anyone had any tips for me!!

I want to put a case fan on the left side of my case blowing onto the HSF to keep it cool.

Is this a good idea???

What are the best ways of doing it I don't have the right dremel bits I have a jigsaw and I have a drill with all the metal bits.

I know the drill works cause I used it on my PSU to put some bvent holes in that.

First... Outline what you want to cut. Then drill a hole very close to the edge of the line. Cut around the hole the best you can. You should be able to get a pretty decent hole with the jigsaw. If you think you messed up a little... just keep going, you will do more damage trying to go back and fix it.

Good luck! Should be a breeze with a jigsaw actually!

i would with the jig saw make the cut a few mm from the line, then finish it off with the dremel
