    Mine's the 212 EVO. This fucking thing. You could kill a man with that. But it also allows me to overclock the 965 to 3.8 and still be comfortably below 50 degrees under 100% load, which is pretty awesome.

    Oh, I thought you were talking cases. I've got the same CPU cooler good sir!

    No wonder Fractal didn't ring a bell in terms of CPU coolers!

    Oh man, I remember the days of having a shitty pre built PC.

    I had one made by "iQon", it had a generic Foxconn mobo, 256MB DDR2 RAM, 80GB IDE HDD, Intel Celeron D 3.06GHz.

    What a fartbox that was.

    That CPU cooler does the job, but my PC rarely gets hot, so it's constantly pumping cold air out the top of my tower. Not good in the winter, it's damn cold down there!

    That is what I wanted.

    As well as sturdy, plenty of room for upgrading and cheap too!

    It was 2006, and I needed a PC. After my Duron 1GHz with 385MB RAM PC packed in.

    My case is next to my monitor. Having something pumping out cold air near my legs would drive me nuts.

    This thing is half-decent for the $80 I believe was originally spent on it.

    Pentium Dual Core @3GHz
    4GB Dual-Channel DDR3 RAM @ 399MHz
    Standard ACER MB
    Integrated GPU could be better, but atleast it has a x16 PCIe slot for a dedicated GPU (though with a 220 watt power supply...)

    And hey, it has HDMI output for whatever reason.

    I'd rather have mine up above too, but I haven't got the best desk in the world. And the case is a beast.
