An Idea

This is an idea me and a guy i know had, will it work you guys think?, because the cooling that come with computers and basically useless, heat rises, why not cool from below and get heat out through the top? soo much easier like this, omg i cant insert an uploaded picture from imageshack, hmm anyway, i was thinking 2 hardrives up top, and mother board right in the middle of your box so the airflow can go right past your motheroard then going on to cool your 2 hardrives with the fans underneath 120x25, and 2 on the side, and with a custom built box get some good airflow out the top of your box, would be loud as all shit but could be used for a server or something,think it would work?, because i dont trust water cooling

Is this what you were trying to type?

This is an idea me and a guy I know had, will it work you guys think? Because the cooling that comes with computers is basically useless, and heat rises, so why not cool from below and get heat out through the top? It's so much easier like this. (OMG I can't insert an uploaded picture from imageshack, hmm...) Anyway, I was thinking: 2 hard drives up top, with the motherboard right in the middle of your box so the airflow can go right past your motherboard.
Then, going on to cool your 2 hard drives with the fans underneath 120x25???, and 2 on the side, and with a custom built box get some good airflow out the top of your box. It would be loud as all shit but it could be used for a server or something. Do you think it would work because I don't trust water cooling.

i thought of rotating the mobo and have made heaps of designs using rotated mobo including fanless systems & water cooled systems. the main reason to rotate mobo is so all fans are working with natural rising of heat, not fighting it. graphics card slot posistion is what fights natural heat rising if you dont rotate.
here's one of the most simple ones using 2 x cpu heatpipe heatsinks sitting on a custom alloy heatspreader, a cpu heatsink on the northbridge & hdds. the airflow from psu above hdd boosts hdd cooling. the ram has custom sinks and their airflow is boosted from cpu fan. there is a cpu heatpipe on the graphics card with another custom alloy bracket which lifts gpu heatsink so other pci slots can be used



edit: also, i put as many noise sources as possible at the rear to make the pc quieter. the dvd is up front which is practical so noise there is sorta unavoidable. there are 2 heatpipes on the cpu so the fan speeds can be at silent speeds. the gpu fan can be a touch quicker while still being silent from user distance. most 120mm psu's are fairly quiet from that range and hdd's will be very cool & inaudiable from user distance

if fans are set to full speed then noise will be crazy but the cooling power will be huge
