slot case fans- anyone ever use these?

Newegg.com - Dynatron DB1206SPG PCI Slot Case Cooler - Case Fans

Seems like a nifty little fan. Supposed to work well for 8800GTX, since it can sit low in the case underneath the GPU vents and blow all the hot air directly out.

Don't see why it wouldn't. If you put it directly below the card, it would be right by the inner exhaust vents, and should keep that hot air from staying in the case. Hell for 410 it's worth a try.

They work decent, the problem with those I've tried is that often they are rather noisy because they work like turbines.

I have tried them ... they do "assist" but they are noisy for the limited air movement and hot air exhaust they provide. Better positive pressure intake fans with good exhaust fans will move more air [with far less noise and cost per CFM air movement.]
