Hey guys.
I'mt trying to o/c my geforce2 mX400 as seen on Tweak3d.net. My case is an Antec SX830 w/ two high-power cooling fans in back, one in front. Plus, I've got a PCI slot fan below AND above the video Card (the fan's are also by Antec. The Antec Cool Cyclone blower. It basically sucks the air out and...well, you know how it works). It claims to increase cooling 40% more than a regular fan, but i'm certain thats not true.

With all thse fans (5 in total), i think i have enough cooling to tweak up my card. What do you think?

As an extra, If you guys don't think that's enough, i'm willing to punch a hole in the case siding, and attach a 120mm (i think that's the right size...) fan to it right where the AGP/PCI slots are. However, i think that what i've got so far is more than enough.

Hope to hear some tips!
