    Hp desktop Intel 3rd gen mobo, Is it possible to run this old case fan to the other direction to reverse the airflow without modifying the hardware ? via bios maybe ?.

    yup... just pull the fan out and flip it around the other direction.... No need for anything else!

    You need a fan to pull the air out of the case too.
