[CUBE] Dual display Cube-compatible card with ADC and DVI

[Thubten Kunga]

There is no need for a fan. The fan in the bottom will not help the 
video card cool — upgrade or no upgrade. The bottom fan only helps cool 
the processor. None of the bottom fan air gets into the video card's 
chamber. DO NOT reinstall that fence UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. Don't say 
i didn't warn you if you do and the GPU burns up.
