I "cut the whistling mesh" on my G4 and much of that special "rushing-hiss-whoosh" sound that only comes from rows of 1/4" holes in plastic sheets 3/8" downwind of each other. Since the air exhausts into the gap between the aluminum box/ inner case and the plastic shell, I removed the corner screws and jammed the plastic side panel open top and bottom. I call it my "free-flowing exhaust method". My temps are something like 7.5 degrees Fht. cooler now. Currently my CPU is at 110.9F and my video card is at 108.2F. Thanks for the post. I was wondering about temps as well.
