Cable ties + rubber bands are the best ghetto modded way to install custom ram cooling fans. I have a few pix floating about of my mod

Bluetac would probably make a great alternative to those rubber fan grommits for noise dampening.

MY first real ghetto mod was when I was using a dual cpu bp6, and I had 60mm to 80mm fan adapters for the heat sinks, but the sinks were slightly smaller than the adapters, so I evo sticked them on .

What's bluetac? Is it that crap that my teachers used to use back in like elementary school to hang posters and such on the wall? If so, that's a great idea for ghetto moddage
