Hi,

any other way (or idea) to find a PCI slot cover with vents similar to those:

besides rip it off, from this 8 euro Akasa fan?

gogos7, σφάξτο!!!

Now that we have the temps, we need to find a way to filter our slots. Any ideas? Nylons? :lol:

Is a cover really necessary? It might stop hairs and large fibers, but dust is still going to get through. IMHO seems like a useless airflow restriction. :)

As for filtering, I'm experimenting with using furnace filter material, the really open mesh type that you buy in a roll. I just have it stuffed here and there, nothing fancy, until I see how efective it is. You can buy a large pack of it for next to nothing, it maybe a little difficult to get for those that live in warmer climes though :)
