Frostytech: Zalman ST300BLP Black Box PSU Mod
Frostytech: Zalman ST300BLP Black Box PSU Mod
  0%   
Abstract: As part of the Black Box PSU Mod we wanted to increase airflow from the inside of the computer case and out through the powersupply.

Step 7. One of the final steps in this mod was to simply paint the case of the power supply black. Apart from the cool appearance this would ultimately give the case the paint also served a purpose. The metal we cut would eventually begin to rust since it was no longer protected by its normal surface treatment. The black paint was also a quick and easy way to stop the metal from rusting.

The grill was left in place on the top portion of the case, and the sticker blocked off with some masking tape to protect it from the spray.

Looking at the final vent hole you'd hardly know it wasn't there all the time.
