I since day i bought it tried working with several programs to get fan control to manual contorl. But being Gateway its impossible, fan is either FUll on or active and kicks on when certain temp reached.

Since theres only the one main fan on the heat sink blowing out, Is there something thats USB powered I can hang over the vent to Suck out the air fater when the CPU fan is down. The fan Normally sits at 1300rpm would love it at 2000rpm but wont happen.

Ive seen laptop coolers like these that clip onto the site of the laptops exhaust vent sucking air out.

But that wont fit on this as you see in video, my question is What do you suggest I find to fit there and tothe job well. This computer sits in 80-81 room temp that can hit 86 during summer.

As of right now room temp is 81 and with FF open on the net its causing the temps to be 46-50C which isnt that bad, but the max temp on this cpu is 69.1c. I want to keep it max of 48 as i dont game on this, just music, internet and business.

how about use the labtop in the winter and get a desktop with many fans for the summer.
or get a small airconditioner for the room
 
The room is my snake breeding operation, and this computer is for business and keeping track of the 100+ snakes. Desktops arent an option in here as their bulky and too many wires.


I have a bad ass i7 980x desktop but thats in a cooler part of house.
 
Did you watch the video from the link i provided. It shows speedfan is open and running. No matter how i setup the cooling by temps per core it stays full blast when i disable SMART in bios. When enabled fan is quiet till temps reach 60c. Though Ive nver had the fan kick on high yet as i dont do intensive stuff. But summer is coming
