Due to my new graphics card being as big as it is (2900 XT), the top half of the motherboard no longer gets any air flowing over it properly, and my northbridge temp has raised dramatically. The case is an Antec P180, therefore the intake is in the middle hard drive bay area. Was thinking about getting something like a Thermaletake ICage just for a top area intake, but not sure on it's performance as basically an intake fan as the ICage seems to be a hard drive cooler and allowing you to hold hard drives in another area.
The Northbridge is normally around 31 - 35c depending on the room temperature, but at the moment it's at 43c with the computer being idle (well, browsing Internet and stuff).
Anyone had any experience with using the ICage as an intake fan, or could possibly recommend anything else to get some cooling on the Northbridge and RAM? Don't think I can get an aftermarket Northbridge cooler because there *probably* isn't enough space due to the Scythe Ninja being on the CPU.
