Here's a fun one for you...
My laptop runs extremely warm when it's working hard (P4 3.0, GeForce FX) - up in the 80 degree C range...
I've just modified my desk so that below the fan intake is a hole, with a 92mm fan blowing a lot more air through.
Has anyone got any ideas how I can cool this air stream to below ambient? I could mount a 120mm radiator and fan below the hole, and run cold water through the radiator, but will this cool the air sufficiently?
Any mods are to be to the desk, not the laptop, and it must be a fairly cheap solution.
There's the challenge - any takers?
