MB Hardware question:
I just bought another fan, a squirrel cage from radio shack. 12v ball bearing brushless. It has a brown plastic 2 prong plug on it. Same brown color as 'FAN2' on the BH6 ... but it has 2 prongs and the base is too thick for FAN2. I will probably just butcher a 5.25" disk drive extension power cable so I can plug it into a standard plug.

Anybody know what that plug fits? Any better ideas for how to power the fan up?

(I'm gonna point it at my ATI All-in-1der to blow it down from 120 to only 90 degrees. The ATI manual suggested that 120 was the limit of acceptable operating temperature.)

Thanks, Paul

Pae,

good stuff. I know of one trader who as all his computers and monitors in a long row and has his chair attached to a sliding rail on the floor and can slide left to right quickly to access any monitor or keyboard. Probably expensive but seems very pratical.
