What essentially happens is that outside air is sucked in thru the holes, passes over the CPU and then combined with the air from the power supply is sucked out by a fan. The CPU is located 20cm away from the fan, under 45" angle - also not that far away from the CPU I drilled some holes to suck in fresh air. The power supply has exhaust vents on top, from which heat escapes. The fan is mounted on top of the power supply. In my case I decided to use one fan to cool down the power supply and CPU. Unfortunately, the bigger they get the more heat they exhaust - and the heat has to be drawn out. The small power supplies (83W, 40W) don't exhaust too much heat and can be safely left without a fan.

Therefore I decided on building a wide box to compensate for the height. In the case of my box, the minimum I could get was 6" height (the motherboard + plastic pegs + ISA Sound card). The placement of motherboard, power supply, and the infrared serial receiver all depends on your imagination. If you have a small motherboard, low-profile sound card and network card, you can make the box 4"-5" tall. The design of the box depends on your parts.
