How come they do not make front end fans that can blow hot air out of both sides?

Wow, I have not seen that for a long time. I guess the thinking is the fans are more powerful now so its not necessary.

I agree with phpmotion plus you wouldn't want hot air pushing out at you from the front.

Fan in the front, never thought about that. I think that would be nice for the harddrives they never get much cooling.

Really your tower / laptop should be used in a very cool area, preferably air condition, where moisture, dust and enclosed spaces are kept to a minimum. Then you won't need extra fans to the front.

Clipshare although that's true you aren't always in an air condition place especially with a laptop, but I think thats going off topic.

I just wanted to add that think having fans on both sides of a tower would be good though.

I think that might actually be counter productive as you will be pulling air from both fans.

Only if you put them back to back, not if you put them at varying positions.

You guys need to learn about modern water cooling and forget the fans or sink your systm in oil.
