This is a question DIY Techno-hacks

Old hard drive platters make wonderfully good drinks coasters - they look dead smart and expensive and you've stopped people reading your old data into the bargain.

Have you taped all your remotes together, peep-show-style? Have you wired your doorbell to the toilet? What enterprising DIY have you done with technology?

Extra points for using sellotape rather than solder.

I
would replace the GPU fans and the PSU fan/heatsink, maybe spend £40. Then replace your case fans with some faster (or intelligent) ones. Clean out all the dust that will have accumulated (including heatsink and PSU fan) with compressed air or strong lungs. Shouldn’t have any issues really, my Quad with stock PSU and 4 case fans rarely goes above 40 degrees, though no SLi.
