Any off-the-shelf cases with fans?

Are there any plug'n'play solutions to the problem of casing and cooling a Parallela?

I have a first-gen board that I have not yet powered up because my understanding is that it really, really needs active cooling if you don't want it to melt into a puddle on your desk. I understand that the usual solution is to fit a 5v fan drawing power from the board. However, all the solutions I've seen require drilling and soldering (and, in some cases, printing parts on a 3D printer); I do not own a soldering iron, much less a 3D printer, and I do not have soldering experience. While I'm a fan of the maker culture in the abstract, and recognize that soldering is a useful skill to have, I really just wanted to get the board up and running so that I can start writing software. Also, I suspect that my fumbling attempts at soldering will probably result in me burning a hole in/setting fire to the board, myself, or nearby objects such as the cat. Neither the cat or I like the idea of this much.

Has anyone come across any ready-to-use plug-and-play cases that could house and cool 1 (or more) Parallela(s), and that don't require a master's degree in electrical engineering to set up?

Thanks in advance for any tips.
