| Now this is what I call innovative pc equipment , tough I'm curious about it's price because it probably won't sell if it isn't cheaper and more efficient than passive air cooling (not to speak about SLI/Crossfire compatibility). |

| Cool, we're finally seeing something that makes good use of all the heat dissipated in modern 'puters. 70%, that's a whole lot, let's hope it won't end up to noise in the end, certainly on NVIDIA chipsets |
