My problem is that when I turn on my computer, the pump and fans kick on, but...

    Question How could I easily improve the cooling in this ?

    Is there anyway to easily improve the cooling in this? Could I just drill holes in it or point a small fan at it? I've seen elsewhere that I would eventually have to upgrade something inside, but would like to know if there is something quick and temporary.
