New Accessory Lets You Block Unused Fan Vents

Does your case have too many fan vents? If so, you'll find this accessory, which cropped up from deep within the bi-lanes of Tokyo's Akihabara district handy. The PA-044 from peripherals maker Ainex covers unused 120 mm and 140 mm fan vents firmly with standard screws. It is made of 0.8 mm-thick sheet of steel, and should block out noise from within the case, and serve as an anti-dust measure. According to the source, it should begin shipping from mid-November. It's likely that peripheral resellers could bring it westwards, selling it by the dozens.

Derek12Hoper there are similar covers for CDROM bays because I sold mine (I don't use it) and now I have a big hole covered with paper lol
Didn't you keep the original front bay cover that you removed when installing the optical drive?

The computer was originally bought second hand in 1999 IIRC, with the CD drive, and it didn't came with the cover. If you saw the tower you would think it has a Pentium II and Windows 98 as it has the original stickers.

I've replaced everything over time but the case, maybe it will be the next thing...
