[QUOTE="eibbor, post: 1225828, member: 143391"] [b]cheap fan[/b] I just found a mini plastic window fan laying around, placed it horizontally half on and half off my desk and tapped it there. Then I tapped the transformer to the top of the fan, keeping sure all the wires could not come in contact with the blades. Now whenever I am doing anything intensive i just flick the fan on. I've kept it on for over 24 hours compressing raw blu ray footage, and the transformer barely got passed warm. A little 'Red-Green' grade fix, but meh - whatever works. My warranty is long gone, and I have two power adapters, one for travelling and I leave the other tapped to the fan. [/QUOTE]
