    It's my pleasure...I hope it works good for you.
    I think you'll come up with a few colorful adjectives trying to fit it into that silly housing because the added wires and connector terminals make it a bit of a chinese puzzle to fit in there but it can be done. (albeit with a considerable ammount of inventive language!)
    The fan's a wee bit noisey at full spin but it will do the job quite nicely.
    I might suggest pulling the PSU loose and blasting in out thoroughly with canned air to get any built up dust out of it because I have a feeling that the least ammount of dust will compromise it's marginal thermal ability.

    Hey how is the little beast running now??

    I was looking for this thread cause Aran and I are trying to cool his down a bit.

    I just got mine and it overheated a couple times and shut itself off.


    I turned smart fan off and enabled the fan to run at full speed all the time in BIOS.

    That fixed my overheating issues. Of course the noise will still be an issue. But I have found that the shuttle is pretty quiet. Mine doesnt have any dust in it yet though.

    I would say putting a filter over the fan is probably a bad idea due to the nature of how that heatsync works.

    Mine runs at medium speed, and so is a LOT quieter, and no more shutdowns....

    Dust is an issue - I gotta clean this thing every couple of weeks. The radiator fins are very sensitive to dust.
