I already posted this in the mobo forum, but realized it probably belongs here instead.
Well, I love my case, except for that feature I once thought was nice, although I can't remember what I thought was nice about it other than the fact that the cpu is lower as far as thermals are concerned . Anyway, I have been using a couple of vantec CCB-A1C's to do the job, and although it pained me to remove that nice quiet heat pipe, they've worked nicely. Well, one of them is making some noise now, and I've been contemplating replacing it with either a zalman ZM-NBF47 or ZM-NB47J (sorry, javascript. else I would've posted direct links). Would one of those be sufficient? Might they actually work a bit better? I know theres not a whole ton of heat dissipating surface area on those vantecs...
