years ago on a far far away galaxy where bbs still roamed the earth we used to take naked boards with no cases and put them one on top of the other, stuff them on a 1u sized room and forget about it (till the nezeq bill came the next month :) which wasn't a lot back then). I wonder if it could be done today without overheating the thing. (P4 excluded. ofcourse if u want to do barbecue in the morning then go ahead).
