I have a built-in desk that is custom cabinetry, built into the wall with a granite top. I have one side I could add a fan to, and the door is solid mahogony. I would like the computer to run 24/7, and do not want the door open except to access a drive, etc. If I were to cut holes in the side of the desk (only 1 side accessible); how many, and what type of fans would be sufficient to support this type of scenario?
Answer:
you will need to have an intake vent hole as well. otherwise it will just pressurize the cabinet erea. i would vent that whole with a filter as well to lower dust accumulation. the fan can be any size and the local electornics stores sells them for around 5 to ten dollars. you can power it with your pc by running a wire from your pc to the fan once mounted.i would place the vent hole up high and the fan motor down low in the cabinet.
sounds like a plan
good luck
Ya you really have to but a fan in there, remember you also need an intake, I would put quite a large one (or two) 120mm fan and an intake (filter if you want to stop dust)
