in my opinion, the cooling couldnt be better.
the only way the air come in is by the plugs, (usb, ps2, and db9 and lan)
the power supply take the air in, and push it out the case that is perfectly
air tight...look at the other picture!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't think it would run games well. I was just curious if it made a good internet station. Thanks!

Toolboxmod. Where did you buy the motherboard?

I bought the motherboard at www.tigerdirect.ca and .com as well
initial cost was 110$ but with the mail in rebate it came down to 48$ canadian
un the .com site for the US it was even less, i think it was around 23$ US
but this was in october 2003 and the mail in rebate took 11 month!!!
i think you can still find this mobo on ebay, try a search about syntax motherboard

Pretty cool indeed

This seems a lot better than me having to carry my desktop over to my friends house.
What would it need to play games? Good Job.
About the fan situation, a few well positioned holes in the case would do the trick.
