This kit works like the duct on your dryer it keeps the heat outside. The duct work keeps most of the heat out of the case. So it will help the ambient temp in the case for all your other components.So yes the kit will work for drawing the heat off the processor, directly to the outside of your case.

Only works with a 5cm fan on the hink sink?

Does anyone make a 5cm fan heat sink for a socket A chip?

Thanks

Hmm, wouldn't that tube be bad for cooling? I forgot where i read this, but won't the folded edges of the tube cause the air velocity to go down or something like that?

does anyone know whre you can get one that will work with 80mm fans.....ex. 80mm fan 80mm duct, 80mm case hole attachment. and wouldn't it be best if the fan was pulling air in from the outside onto the HSF? please linkify any suggestions.
