I have a crazy idea for a "homebrew wannabe-room cooling... thingy". Basically, I'd like to put a regular case fan near my slightly opened window and have it suck outside air into the room. And no, I can't get an air conditioning unit.
The problem is that I would need a 4-5 meter long molex cable running from my PC to the fan at the window and preferably one with an on/off switch on the way as I'd like to be able to turn it on and off anytime without having to physically disconnect it every time.
That said:
- Did anyone see such long molex cable with an already built-in on/off switch?
- Would it be healthy for my PSU to do it? I mean, wouldn't turning the fan on or off not harm it in any way since I would do it with the PSU being already on.
