Well, the fan on my server/experimenting/lan pc that I use from time to time to play a game with when I am doing other stuff with my real gaming pc has been making the weirdest noise lately. Turned out to be the fan off my psu and the reason behind it turned out to be instability trough a design error in my case. In lamens terms, the noise happened because it wasn't properly alligned and that made the noise.
Anyone got a good suggestion what to do, as you may notice my current solution isn't all that

Well, I have it stuck together with something called a limeclamp (lijmklem in dutch). Don't know the proper word in english unfortunatly.

easy get a drill and drill a hole on either side of the case just above the lvl of the psu then use some zipties to hold it up.
btw the clamp in the photo is what we call a c-clamp in the usa.

1). Turn PC upside down.
2). Use a hot gluegun to hold it to the case. Prepare surfaces with sandpaper. 3). Use 2 long cableties together and strap it up around the top of the case. 4). Do a McGuyver and keep it up with a fried egg and chewing gum!

Here in America it's called a Bar Clamp not a C clamp:-)
I would just get a nicer case, but if you've got the time I would get some sheetmetal and break out the rivet gun. I luv the red interior, it looks like a good case for a mod. You could probaby get some great ideas by looking at some of the case mods over at HardwareHell, VoidedWarranty or PCApex.

Well, it's just my b-spec pc so I don't wish to spend too much money on it, however, I could look for some modding ideas just for fun. I do already have a plastic window mounted into it, just isn't included in this picture because it wont fit because of the C-clamp, Bar clamp thingy
