I want to know as well. I just got the wii and I keep noticing the low airflow.

Can anyone give us the size it is (LxWxH)?

Thx.

lmfao "processor fan" hahaha yeah uh don't waste your time, installing a stronger fan would create more heat if anything. nintendo would not release a console that couldn't keep cool. even with a chip you're fine, don't worry about it.

uhhh not really theres a broblem with Wiiconect 24/7 if you use this the WiFi on the wii is still active making it very hot and coz its on standby its internal fan is not active so yea that seems to have caused alot of problems for people by fucking up theur GPU's

wasnt the one with the PC fan on the top was it? if so thats mine. i took some pretty drastic mesures i was one of the 1st in the forums to speak out about the Wiis over heating problem and identify the reason why and most people thought i was retarted then a few weeks later the treads start about the black pixels every where and how its releated to the overheating GPU and that shut them all up that thought i was wrong. if you want to do something like mine all you need is a smaller fan really and have it powered by USB since the USB ports are still powered while in standby although the fan only runs at 5.5V while its a 12V fan it still delivers enough airflow to keep it ice cold while in standby.
