    This reminds me of my old computer i used to have to work with

    I didint know crap about computers so i did not go in get fans or anything, Well... i did get a fan, a house fan

    Taped my room fan to the side of it, worked good, Would stop constantly crashing. But whenever i ran a game or anything with high graphics it would beep like crazy, but only in summer. Once winter came around it never beeped and never crashed

    Let's just say I don't run Intel Burn Test during this time of the year
    (Prime 95 and normal usage are within comfortable limits)

    Read a thread awhile about computer in a freezer on Overclockers. Can't find it now, but it basically said something along the lines of this:
    No, it will not work. This has been discussed at great length with the same outcome. Your typical home freezer/fridge cannot continuously (nor, is it designed) remove heat from a source...they are meant to remove heat and maintain temperatures. The amount of heat wattage being removed by the freezer is far exceeded by what a PC would be outputting.

    Now, if you have a large industrial freezer, say the size of 20'x20' (or even smaller) for a retail store or something, you would be fine as they can remove the amount of heat vs. area. But as far as your home freezer or refrigerator, no.
