    I'm in process of building me a pc grow box to beg one plant in. I took apart a old large case computer case I have. I am putting it together in next couple days. I gutted it keep fans I'm using large black fan for my exhaust and 2 small ones inside. I might have to make some adjustments I'm putting in 2- 65 watt cfl 6500k bulbs. I have all the supplies which is not much to do this. I am going by designs I seen in utube.I'd be glad to share set up if you would like.
    Or go to utube step by step instructions.

    A pc grow box is not an easy thing to make and use.

    I'm going to sub this thread and can give you some assistance if you'd like. I have built one, but could not build an internal carbon filter that worked at the time. I have since upgraded to an IKEA set of draws and learnt some things in the process and have had an insight into how to build a decent filter. The problem that you have, is that a standard pc fans works on zero static pressure, meaning it won't pull air through a filter, leading to a lack of air flow and an increase in temps way above what is ideal.

    The heat build up of a CFL is a lot in a PC case, I used a 125w in a PC server, which is probably on par with heat output to your 2x65w CFL's. For this reason, if you can afford it, I would definitely recommend going for LED, there is a particular model that I have seen used that will fit into a PC case just nicely and they output a lot less heat than CFL.

    Mind you, if it's just for vegging, filtrating isn't an issue, so you can just push/pull air passively with no filter.
