So i was kinda fed up with the stock cooling and had some time on my hands.
I decided on embarking on this time passing project.
materials used:-
0.5mm purple translucent plastic
80mm fan
some glue.
DAY 1: Fabrication
my plan was to create a blower type effect, without compromising the warranty of my product.
so i designed a plastic cover for the heatsink and keep a hole in it for the fan of the heatsink.
not satisfied with the simplicity, i decided to make a chimney on the fan hole and encase another powerful fan in it(the 80mm)
the diameter was 55 mm and its hard to get fans here in Kolkata to i had to cut a 80 mm(the commonly available size)
after taking out the fan blade portion (how to do that is given here) and cutting it to size this is what i got.
balancing test:-
good... good...
fitting test one... a tight fit
hmm a bit trimming left.
and what about balancing?? i was successful in perfectly balancing this fan! even better than the original way! thank God i was born with good fabrication skills!
DAY 2: Mounting!
now to fit the fan in the chimney
i placed it along with the frame on the chimney and marked the 3 legs of the fan. note that the frame legs have been left longer to coaz these into the holes on the plastic fabricated already.
you can see the holes in this pic \/
this is the final balance test
airflow test.
i do this test with the help of a smoking incense stick
mounting done!
in action!
effectiveness:
stock was >70C on stock speeds! this is OC!!!!
more random pics
if you happened to take a peek, do leave comments! any criticism will thanked and is heavily appreciated!
