I am currently building an A1200 with a BPPC 175/060 and BVision in the desktop case with 256 megs of ram. I am also interested in cooling solutions. I was thinking about a Nidec Gamma series;
Nidec Gamma 26
Nidec Gamma 28
Nidec Gamma 30
mounted in the left rear corner (where some people put a laptop cd-rom) and some custom duct work from the fan to the BVision and BPPC. I have a Gamma 30 and while it's a little large for the 1200 it moves more than enough air to keep the whole system cool and it's nice and quiet. Any thoughts on how to make or route the ducting?

I had the 040 replaced with a 060 mostly for that reason. I am testing temperatures as the next step. You would have to make some custom duct work to move the air where it's needed from the square output of the fan.
