The other day at work we had a van come in that was a stolen recovery. The van was full of junk and included in this mess was a few pieces of a PC case. One of these pieces was a side panel that was modded with a fan installed for more "out" airflow. The brand of the fan is Windmere. Yes you are correct in saying "that is a brand of small household fans and stuff". And the hack job to make the hole in the panel gives me cuts just looking at it.

Just thought I would share this bit of comedy with everyone.

yes, good idea but bad fabrication.

reminds me of my good ole case mod with a 24" circular fan. that pushed 300+ cfm and kept everything nice and cool.
