After my recent issue with newegg I still need a ram cooler but didn't have any cash left. As some of you know I like to cut up and mod pci slot covers into doing what I need them too. Well last night I came up with this little beauty.

not bad - i would close of the sides and create more of a suction effect in between the slots to pull air away and out of the fan. just my thinking

Just compare this to anything available retail. They all use either 3x40mm fans 2x60mm or 1x80mm. Sure this is bigger than most and won't work for everyone, it sure as hell does for me and it was free.

Not I just need to remove it and paint it black.
