040 in 1200 wedge case?

[runequester]

I know 040's generate quite a bit of heat, but is it possible to run one in an amiga 1200 wedge case without stability issues, or is that generally out of the question?
 
Could you rig something up with fans etc ?
 
(and before the A2000 troll comes in, I am not selling my 1200, thanks for playing)

The trapdoor cover is missing on mine anyways.
 
You could probably add a fan outside blowing air across too, for a bit extra circulation.
 
 
 
Just pondering options for the girl, if I come across a decent priced 040

Besides heat another issue is power consumption. The bog standard A1200 power supply is just not enough for an 040 esp. if you are running a hard drive too.
 
Do you have a beefy power supply?

The PSU I use was from amigakit, and intended for tower cases, so I think Im good on that part
 
Good catch though.
