So I tried to squeeze my GTX 295 in my Antec P183 with the optional VGA fan installed, and it wouldn't fit!
So instead of just letting my extra fan sit and collect dust, I was determined to use it somewhere somehow!
So I did the following, I removed the top hard drive bay, installed the fan on it, and hid it under my DVD rom.
The entire front of the P183 is perforated, so there is fresh air coming through the top of the case, but does anyone think it'll be effective?
I'm waiting on a few parts before I can build it, so I just put the case+psu+fans together, and brainstorming silly ideas.
What do you guys think?
also if u think this is a bad idea and i should remove it...do u think i should keep an empty hard drive tray in the front intake fan to help it "funnel" the fresh air in?
