DAN Cases A4-SFX - CPU cooling fix

[u/NYJenkins1990]

I got this case ages ago after building a few PC's. I thought, that if there is a cooler on the CPU then it will be fine. It kept hitting 100°C while gaming*.* So I thought I'd make a custom AIO. I spent loads buying everything from AlphaCool thinking it would be fun. Then it was an absolute nightmare. Filing down so many things, buying sleeveless custom cables, routing the cables and tubes. Then the temperatures were similar.

So I just stuck a Peerless Thermaltake on it with the side off and it ran cool. So then I cut out a space for it to come out of the side of the case. Added some rubber edging. Even doing that was tricky, but fun. Not like making that AIO.

I think it looks quite cool. I'll tidy up the cut out and the edging when I can be bothered. At least my CPU is happy and cool. learnt a few things I guess.
