Could you post a pic of your system with all these fans and stuff? Or provide more information that could help us in getting proper fans and air flow?

Re: Vista 64 bit recovery disc on a wiped hard drive.

I will see if I can get some pics up. But for a bit of info, I stuck with fans that have a standard power cable. Then just chain them all up. I wanted to see if i could find the actual fan connectors on the mobo, but had a few drinks and didnt feel like trying to find it (dont much light in the room). What I did was this:

1. 1st case fan. I mounted this on the back of the case. There is already an indentation for the fan. I slapped on there. Positioned so that it takes the air from inside the case, and pushes it out. AeroCool SilverLightning120mm Aerocool 120mm Fan

2. 2nd case fan. This I mounted to the grating on the removable panel on the case. Its not really mean to do this, I guess, but it fit and the blue light of the fan compliments the blue on the media controller. AeroCool SilverLightning120mm Aerocool 120mm Fan

3. HDD fan. I pulled the HDD out, and screwed the HDD cooler on. It was a tight fit getting it back into the chassis, but with a bit of work, it slides back in. This also set to pull air from in the case and push it out. Masscool by Fanner Tech 4B02S4 Speeze HD Cooler

4. GPU cooler. Its not a true GPU cooler (as they connect to the video card), this is just a dual fan exhaust card that sits right below the nividia card. Vantec Thermal Technologies SP-FC70-BL Vantec PCI Fan

5. Then an exhaust fan below the GPU cooler to yet take more hot air from the PC and push it out. Masscool by Fanner Tech 4F01B4 Expansion Slot Rear Exhaust Cooling Fan

After its all said and done, here are my temps (all in celcius):

GPU: 53C
temp1: 44C
temp2: 38C
temp3: 30C
core0: 48C
core1: 43C
core2: 45C
core3: 43C

Hope that helps
