<font color = #FFFDDA > Well I guess all viewpoints are based on where a person is standing ... you’re standing in Scotland in February! Maybe you have to give you’re PC a hot water bottle to stop it freezing at night Ross [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] out here in the western suburbs of Sydney it can reach 40c quite often in February. That’s before you switch on you’re computer :D

If the computer is drawing from the same pool of hot air it is emitting then the fans will not be doing the job you hope for, especially if the back of the cupboard drawer he has removed is up against or very adjacent to a wall or corner of a room. I guess it depends a lot on Larry's room temperature and position of the cupboard </font>

John-saves me buying a phase change cooling system I suppose - thus saving £400 :D

You could always put a duct to the heatsink on your exhaust fan. That would give the CPU a nice cool and your intake would do the job for the rest of the case.
