No flames here mate, we are all here to learn.
I'm called a "specialist" with software, just due to that I'm MCSE , Master CNE, It Project+ etc. Well, the only thing I know is that I don't know anything

I know the difference with DC/AC, but I have no in depth knowledge of mosfets and how/why the captiance (right word?) becomes AC. Nor do I understand why my earth fuse snapped when the "life" heatsink got in contact with it. (sure there was a to high voltage leak...... I understand thast part )

I don't have to know, I know what's most imported: ALWAYS be carefull when you play with a PSU. So I am

I have no intention to redesign the PSU, or to fully understand how it is working.

I do however now have 2.5 x 12 x 12cm extra space in the PSU, and I want to make good usage of it.

The extra space should already provide a better airflow.
Will placing some additional fins to the heatsing do some good? or is it just a waist of time?
