Thank you, the pictures are very good. My Dell 4600 had a green baffle that funneled the air through the heat sink fins. There is a little latch at the bottom which allows the this to swing open. Because the back of my PC is full of 13 years worth of cables, I did this without lying the PC down and without disconnecting the fan connector from the mother board. I am amazed at how quiet the PC is now.
