[QUOTE="belcom, post: 550848, member: 89055"] Looks cool, sounds cool - in fact - doesn't sound! BUT! Most motherboards need a venting CPU cooler not only for cooling the processor, but also for cooling surroundings like chipsets north bridge, power regulators and so on. The heatpipe solution offered here doesn't do this job. :( So if you like to use this case, you also have to find a mobo which neither needs a venting CPU fan nor a venting system or case cooler. Actually, there aren't any... Only thing left: Buy laaarge passive coolers for every chip you see around the cpu socket, or small ones which you try to attach it with some copper rails to the heatsink. If you don't do this, it will also work... for some minutes to some months... [/QUOTE]
