[QUOTE="Tech Geek, post: 40079, member: 18181"] Just an FYI, you can have a similar cooling setup just by purchasing a Thermaltake silent 939. It's not quite as large but it cools very well and is very quiet. I do have a fanless CPU cooler I purchased for my desktop but it requires replacing the plastic bracket on the moterboard and I still have to buy a couple parts to do that. The thing is pretty big (ok... huge) and it is designed to use the power supply fan to provide airflow. The only totally fanless models I'm aware of that I wouldn't worry about overheating use heat pipes to conduct heat to the case or an external heatsink. [/QUOTE]
