Well, being the obsessive nut that I am, I decided that while overclocking, my temps were too high. I cut a rectangular hole in the side of my computer case to help cool off the fsb/cpu/vid card. installed 2 80mm case fans on the inside of the side panel, and 2 chrome grilles on the outside of the hole. this was REALLY easy. the only tools you need are a dremel(or a similar grinder tool) and a drill for the screw holes. This dropped the cpu temp about 4-5 degrees and the ambient temp about 7 degrees.
