Perfect but if you remove the back you can get another fan and have them in push pull !

That is the first time I saw something like this ( Makes me wanna do it now hehe..).
Try what Linne said and take out the back panel and put another fan pulling out air and there you go an almost perfect air cooling.
The reason I said almost is becuase of the dust that might get caught in those important nooks and crannies, but other than that your have yourself a ghetto cooling system.

Been doing that all these years with my desktops (case open & point a desk fan at it). The house can be like an oven in the day time and I'm not about to waste money on airconditioning. Sure, it gets dusty, but it's not like cleaning it is hard (case is already open).
