Would it not be easy to just self-install a giant fan to the side of your computer and put mesh on both side for dust. I wanna try it, it would be like air-flow heaven.

It would look like the image below, just that fan would be the whole side of the computer... what do you guys think? VIABLE OR NOT?

Umm... No?
That would be one big-***-mutha'-***ing fan... Not practical and loud as hell.
Liquid cooling is probably better but, I'm no computer scientist so, IDK.

Sound really isn't a problem for me, personally. Your case would have to be slightly extended on that side in order for the fan to actually spin correctly. But even then it isn't practical. Althought it seems like it would work (I personally have the top part of an oscillating fan tilted on its side and pointed towards the inside of my computer and I have it on max setting cause my computer turns my room up like 10 degrees or something).

You could easily find a quiet fan, as for size; that purely the reason I recommended it. It could cool your whole PC with a fraction of the cost of liquid cooling and be just as efficient.

Or you could just get a case that has good natural air flow in the first place.

How about we drop it in a circle perpetually. That way, it will have natural air flow and... momentum...


Thank you to jhoijhoi for the sig, and all the dividers in the guide.

I think I get what your saying... if I understand correctly you are saying get case built especially for that fan? correct or incorrect?
