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?
