errr sorry for borrowing your thread... hehee[]
route,
buy dc fans from sim lim tower.
should be about $5 for 80mm x 80mm.
diy a holder to hold fans.
connect the wires into your computer.
you do not need a power adapter.

so shld i get 1 DC fan or 4 AC fans??
Ermmm..why should you get 4 AC fans as compared to 1 DC fan? AC fan is much more efficient but noisy. Get either 1 AC fan or 2 DC fan and "on" it for 24/7. See the results and then determine whether to add more fans....note that if additional fan is added and no improvement is seen..then it is at its lowest temp.

Errr... usually AC fans more powerful then DC fan, so you should be getting more DC fans then AC fans. Anyway, theres a fan clamp by ISTA that will fit 12cm and 9 cm fans. Can be found at Nature Aaquarium.
There is a link to an article to DIY DC fans in the Aquatic FAQ.

Why use punctuation? See what a difference it makes:A woman, without her man, is nothing.
A woman: without her, man is nothing.
i tried looking for 4 AC fans by ocean free but seems like out of stock in petmart and NA... think i will get the 1 big fan from NA.. not sure dc or ac.. its kinda heavy though..
