Subject: RE: motherboard for 1U case
Heh, yeah, but they often go way the hell overboard with 6" fans stuck all
in
and on the case and liquid nitrogen running through the system or whatever
:)
I'm just looking for a good fan/heatsink combo I can trust to quietly keep
the
CPU at optimal temps. No overclocking, $45 fan clusters, etc... Just good,
simple, "This off-the-shelf fan was just plain the best performer" :)
I'll check out those sites, though. Thanks for the URL's...
