    Arctic Freezer pro should do the trick fine - throw in overclocking too.

    Hahaha, that is just rediculous. Surely a case that big, would effectively just be a capsized helipcopter?

    "Stupidly, we loaded up Crysis under Vista, set full everything in the graphics options and started a level. The fan went into overdrive at a deafening 4000rpm before it tore free of the wall and went spinning across the hall sucking in cats and small children on its way. Last we heard it had been shot down somewhere over Vietnam"

    lol!

    Re: Headlines - Arctic Cooling unveil 2000mm fan

    Are my eyes deceiving me. i did read that right 2000mm, not 200mm. . that is huge. If that doesnt keep you(r computer) cool I don't know what will. I wonder if it sticks with the AC trend of being unbelievably silent. Or if this sounds like a jet engine. Must use a lot of power being that big!

    I know but it was fun to play along, lol. Main reason being that it says F12 indicating a 120mm fan. now if they wanted to make it really convincing i should have been F200 ! i dont suppose it would be that difficult to actually make that thing work.
