    Well, you could mount it on top of your monitor pointing right straight at your face. Then when your playing a racing sim you'll have a more realistic gaming experience.

    Cool

    hehe, hell of an idea.

    maybe a reostat to simulate slower and faster speeds could be incorporated too.

    yehahahohoho!!!

    Or, you could mount it in the lower front of the case to bring in some nice cool air. Or maybe a side panel application to help directly with the vid card and all the rest of the internals, or a blowhole at the top of your case sucking the hot air right out of the top, or..............????????????

    Hey, I got an extra 80mm lying around somewhere too. What if I screwed it right behind the other 80mm I have in the back of the case? Would that do anything as far as increasing the suckage?

    Hehe… I said suckage….
