    Then make one, dippy. Or two. Or get a rear loaded PSU.

    my PSU is already exhausting out the back, I don't want to cut into the plastic of the case.

    Pour water on it. That's how you water cool something right?

    No you duct tape all of the seams and then fill the whole rig with water, silly :p

    well, I ended up moving the PSU to the bottom, and removing both intake fans, and having 1 80mm exhaust fan where the PSU would go. I am still making the brackets to mount the PSU, so expect an update on the build log either tonight or tomorrow.
