Paul, << The only options I see at this point are:..2. Remove the CPU fan, and perhaps mount a rack alongside the cards to blow air over the cards and onto the CPU.>> Do you know where we could get such a product? We have a Pentium box that we'd like to put our Targa+ out to pasture in. Unfortunately, the motherboard(?) of this box was not designed with full length ISA cards in mind: the ISA slots are blocked by the CPU fan, and a heat sink on another chip<grr…> I wonder if a fan on a card near the CPU could replace the CPU fan and heat sink? Is there anything else to cool a Pentium that adds less than 1/4" to the chip height? -Donald
