Is the any focused air cooling solutions out there ?

Wanted too take preventive measures to cool m.2 drivers under heavy load scenarios to prevent thermal throttling.

Trying to avoid ghetto setups.

 

Fans like the Noctua NF-12 (or whatever) or the Silverstone Air penetrators are pretty much designed to focus air in the manner you are looking for. However. A normal fan will do the job, something like a 40mm fan and a bracket made by yourself will do the job.

I would recommend buying some cheapo aluminum RAM heatsink and using thermal adhesive pads to apply them that would probably ur best bet. is it ghetto, thats ur judgement

Thanks guys the feedback helps, i got all these ideas on my head but always want feedback to refine them.

I've been stuck doing factory work for the last fifteen years and wanted too get back into the swing of things since vaix.net got sold in 2000 and i moved back too tennessee.

They can get that hot depending on case configuration and load, but i'm thinking investment lifespan and power consumption + throttling as factors.

And just doing something different that's asthetically appealing.

Right now i'm focusing with a ductwork idea in my head using a small blower and pvc and flex connectors like on a aquarium return to channel air.

I tinkered with this on a terarium one time and think it might be a good reaplication especially for work benches.
