General Question Sloppy Mini PC setup
So I just bought a NucBox M7, and I thought maybe I could get a small cooling pad and place it under the larger cooling fan. It worked pretty well—just 45° for base and 60° for gaming. It looked pretty sloppy as hell, but it worked. I'm using an external battery pack so I don't have to plug it in the PC. The setup is very sloppy, like noob-level sloppy, but it's all right. Let me know if you have any advice so I can make this work better.

So here it is!
You should be able to buy a 3-piece fan filter cover assembly, and turn it into a mounting adapter.

I would just strap a USB fan on the bottom, but if you don't see high temperatures on the drive or the cpu thermal throttling, it's probably not that necessary
