Duct Modding for Vocano's
Hey guys/gals
I purchased this duct mod yesterday and I figured I should give my review cause its pretty nice looking and works great. After playing Battlefield 1942 after like 3 hours I check my temps and Im running 1 degree lower than usual idle speed temp. http://www.thermaltake.com/products/...ductingMod.htm cheers

You mean the active temp w/ the duct was 1 degree cooler than the idle temp without the duct? Do you have a more direct comparison?

So how much did you pay for this?
I saw one on sale at www.adamant.com for over $9.00. Would be nice if you could get it with a volcano series as part of a package deal. |

I paid 10$ Canadian for it, so thats like 7$ US. And yes it would be cool as a package but they make more cash this way. Whats cool aboot it is that it brings your fan out about 1.5 " and I have a side fan on the panel that shoots air straight into it.
