If the fan has good bearings and runs at a slow speed, it will cool better and quieter than most solutions! I know a floor fan works -- I tested my theory. CPU temp came right down. But you do not need to strap the fan right to the case. Just set a floor fan close, and run it on low speed.

I was being humerus and agree with you at the same time - not sure if both points made it across the dimensional barrier My number one point is that blowing cool air at something cools it. Anything else that involves "sucking" is unpredictable and depends on actual "suction" I would rather use your floor fan than most of the silly stuff people come up with!
