I try to leave a slot opposite the CPU open and use my larger bus cards to 
form a semi air duct over to the CPU. As hot air rises, it's best to aim for 
the bottom of the CPU.

Isn't it strange how so many case have no dedicated air intakes? What air get 
in comes via floppy drive slots and such, thus using the floppy drive 
read/write heads as dust filters!  Great design.

Kinda hard to direct airflow over the CPU from these, but much better than 
nothing.  Good luck. ... OFFLINE 1.50
