as cool as possible. Can anyone recommend a model that works well. He's
not concerned about cost. TIA

Have you tried alt.comp.hardware.pc-homebuilt and/or
alt.comp.hardware?
It may not look like it, but there are still people subscribed to those
newsgroups.


I couldn't talk the owner out of it, he has a really good job and is
learning about computers, so this is just another chapter. Even if the
whole machine blows up he could replace it without pain. It's funny
because it's not running hot, he has a great cooling scheme now, a huge
metal heat sink with a large fan on it, but he insists. So once I can
get him to analyze the graphics card temps (if that's possible) we'll
have the discussion again. Thanks for the additional newsgroup links.

Has he said _why_ he wants to do it - is it that he thinks it'll be
quieter than the present one, or is it just that he wants to play with
such a system (rather like steampunk)?
