Dell Optiplex GX270 ghetto heatsink mod and recap

[momaka]

Well, for those still interested in the original thread (anyone? ), I did some slight modifications to my custom heat sink - mainly switched the fan with a standard 70 mm one that came bundled with that heat sink. Also slightly changed the way the retention mechanism works - now it holds the heat sink by pushing down on that 70 mm fan. Pics coming soon. It all looks a little better though... until you look at the case I installed this motherboard in . But I think that may be material for another thread. There's just too much handiwork to show here .
