Eh...decent airflow...don't like how theres no front fans that are worthwhile...have the rear and side as intake and two top's as exhaust...or the rear-top as exhaust and front-top as intake.

You want cooling power, get something that pushes some air.

One of these "rifle coolers" should do the trick:

Nice...

Fan Speed: 600 - 2000 R.P.M. (PWM)
Noise Level: 13 - 32 dBA <---- almost silentb]
Air Flow: 21.2 - 76.8 CFM


On Amazon the price is good...looks just like one of the "rifle" coolers...

Still, with similar specs and a "lifetime warranty" and lower cost - XIGMATEK HDT-S963 92mm Rifle CPU Cooler

They're not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for with Zalman coolers.

Amen!  And copper's thermal conductivity is almost twice that of aluminum.   :aok
