otho that fan is HUGE, I question it's cooling "effectiveness". As you can see, the CPU sits exactly at the center of the fan where there'll be minimal air blown on it. It's cooling more of the mobo and less of the HSF core. I could be wrong tho. What's your CPU temp reading NFS4?

The Zalman CNPS 7000-Cu/CNPS 7000-AlCu is arguably the BEST P4 heatsink on the market. It was designed for maximum cooling performance with minimal noise output. Read here:

What I don't understand is why you guys have giant, monster cases... yet only have one or two hard drives, one or no PCI cards at all and your AGP video card. If your cases are that empty, why have such klunkers? :Q

Some of you are just *so* ready for the mini platform. ;)

Well, when I got the hot deal on the Antec Lanboy case, I really had no reason NOT to put a little light in there. The only thing I added to the case was a blue cathode light. The MSI motherboard just so happened to come with flashing LED's...I didn't buy it b/c of that though. If my case was completely closed off, you wouldn't see any light inside my case.

At least now I can tell when I need to get the air can in there to blow out the dust bunnies :D
