OMG, it looks like an engine from some commercial jet. If your cpu overheats with that monster on it, then it was meant to die.

Is there a case on this planet that can hold that monstrosity or would you have to cut a hole in the side like it was a ridiculous supercharger on some phallically challenged fucktards car?

I don't think it'll help much unless you somehow manage to *cram* some ram into the ram slots

$500 to launch your CPU into oblivion? Sounds good to me...

I think the idea is to keep it quiet while pushing large volumes.

Still can't believe TMD fans haven't been widely adopted in a variety of sizes and HSF combos!!!

TMD is the future of fans.

No they arent. Not until they work out the noise, vibration, and reliability issues.

Even Vantec seems to have second thoughts about using TMD fans on their Aeroflow line of HSFs. The 2nd gen Aeros have a conventional ball bearing fan.

that first pic, with the 3 blade fan, is that thing supposed to be quieter since it has larger more surface area on each blade, thus it doesnt have to turn as fast?
