The major benefit with hairs or wires is that they are flexible and can be bent and attached to other things easilly. This means that you can make a heatsink that attaches to the chassi for instance. And you can attach another heatsink on the chassis, thereby making a huge heatsink without putting ...

Cooling Software

Hi, I used to have some software called VCool on my previous computer (with via chipset). This software was actually able to lower the cpu and ambient temps by some degrees. It disconnects the NB and something I can't remember. But the problem is they haven't got an update yet to support nforce moth...

Putting a Panaflo or Papst fan on the VGA Silencer would defeat the purpose of buying it. Its specially-shaped fan and built-in duct gets the GPU heat out of the case. Without the fan duct, it would easily be bested by the much larger Zalman cooler. I would wait on making a purchase until MikeC doe...

and it makes the choice even harder.

They say that the VGA silencer is not silent at 12v, but they dont talk about how it is at 5v or how the zalman performs without cooling...

I was about to buy the Arctic and now I read that its not really silent... :sigh:

"YS-Tech 92mm-Lüfter - Ultra Silent 10.90 €
FD 1293251B-2A, 49 m³/h., ca. 18 db(A) "

I dont know if its any good but I was thinking of it because i also need a new 92mm fan.

or

"NB UltraSilentFan-SE - 92mm 15.90 €
64 m³/h at 22 db(A) "
