Well, seeing as it's that time of year again, it's time to take full advantage of the cold Irish air, it's between -2°C and 5°C during the day and night here, so applying that air to a water cooled system's radiator can only do magical things!
So, much like some of my older projects, the premise is to draw in cool air from outside and get it into the case, however this time I am cooling the radiator that is mounted on the back of my case.
So i spotted a huge yellow plastic tube in a pile of rubble on a local building site, i think its about 90mm internally. So I took it, cut it and set it up to lead all the way from my open window to the back of the PC. I then stuck and 80mm fan in the end to suck air all the way through it.
Onward with the pictures!
