hi,
i recently started a thread about my mates computer and his temperature which he is running at about 60'C and he wants it a bit cooler so i have considered some options for him
from lowest price to highest price (generally n e way)
1. Case Fan
2. New Thermal paste
3. New Heatsink + Fan
4. New Case
so i was thinking as its goin to be the cheapest i wud get him to buy a case fan just to c what differeence he sees in temps
now heres his case but i dnt know what size fan it takes or even what fan to buy ??

it def has a whole for a fan near the rear of the case has 4 mounting holes and a mesh grid type thing
so apart from the case fan which im def getting what wud u suggest to get his temps down he wants to overclcok his pentium D but i said i wouldnt advise it until he has dropped his temps ??
im looking for the cheapest way of cooling his pc ?
note : he currently has the side of the pc case off with a household fan pointing at it which only drops the temps by 3 degrees lol
ps im from uk and would ask if your gonna reccomend n e thing try make it off ebuyer.com or mapins.co.uk
