I have a Compaq Presario cq5320f desktop pc. I was wondering what the two closed slots underneath the case fan on the bottom back are for? Could I pry them open with a flat-head screw driver and secure any components into them?

Here is the picture of the back of the pc:

Thanks for replying. I think I just accidentally figured out what the slots are for. I was looking at some cpu liquid coolers online and the most common component I saw was the Corsair H115i. I then looked up some more images of it and found a configuration of a similar cpu liquid cooler. I literally instantly thought about those mysterious slots as soon as I saw this.

I just found a Corsair dual radiator for a low price on Craigslist. Do you think I can install one in my pc?

I think no, since there is only 1 fan slot as I can tell on the case. The Corsair H115i needs a 240mm radiator support slot. You might have to get another case for the radiator. I feel that this is kind of risky, since the motherboard you're using is from Pegatron ( a brand I've never heard of before ). It will fit most ATX and Micro-ATX cases, but I'm not really sure about it's compatibility...

Well, that's all I can suggest. :)
