Lenovo M93P tiny - possible to mount a HSF to?

[gigatexal]

Before I go about tearing my M93P tiny apart I wonder if anyone else has thought of this before: the laptop style cooler is loud and audible. If I could mount (jerry-rig likely) a HSF and remove the enclosure (I am not worried about dust or the like) I'd be happy.

Anyone know of skematics for this? I could get a better idea of the holes and the locations.

page 89 of this, not only does it look like i can mount a hsf to it but I can upgrade the chip.

Hell yes

None of the spare HSFs I have had the right narrow mounts. Going to find a cheap hyper 212 to try. But whilst putting it together I somehow lost video out so there’s that.

anyone know where to get a lenovo fan connector to PWM adapter? similar to this fan's connector but to something more standard so that I don't have to do any splicing?
