Anyone else notice this?
Just recently, I tested with my hands and a piece of paper and noticed that the airflow is higher towards the left side. Turning it over to see the fan placement corroborates this: the fans are not in the centre of the unit, but rather offset to one side.
Which leaves two questions: is this intended for some specific reason? And what is the purpose of the dummy/mock-fan outlines next to them?
... I may have to try Gophn's cooler mod, as my M860TU requires more cooling on the right side (the left side never gets hot).

Gophn's cooler mod helps ALOT. I did it and I did it for my cousins M860TU and his gpu doesnt pass 60C. (260m)

I had decided to pass on it before due to some saying it could adversely affect the engineered airflow, but considering I'm unhappy with the airflow as it is now, I've got nothing to loose.
