- Stealing your megahurtz at night
The place that my fiancee works at has a shared dumpster with quite a few places that are also in the same building. One of these places is a computer store. She was out on a trash run, so that she could have a smoke break, and about that same time the computer shop was bringing out a few trashed systems that they were just planning on throwing away. She asked if they minded if she just took them, so now I have 3 extra cases, all with PSU, Mobo, CD drives, and one also had a chipset fan, which I will be stealing for my case, since I don't have one. I was thinking about robbing the PSU's of their fans, since none of them are really large enough to run a good system with. Anyone know what the chances of these fans actually being something decent are? I know that I had gotten a 92mm Vantec from robbing a Gateway PSU, but I am not sure what these fans might be until I tear them apart. Who knows I may just end up setting up a blowhole on this computer, and maybe try setting one of these fans on the side of my heatsink to help blow the hot air out a little bit easier. Any one think this would be a good idea or a bad idea?
