Doesn't anyone else think that it is a bit OTT ?

Yeah, it is, but some people are over the top...

That's a Hedgehog Type W with I'd assume some Delta fans. That's some serious cooling. :eek:

i think that is going a little overboard, your eardrums blow out the second you turn the computer on from the sudden absence of air in your room accompanied by the 190db noise eminating from the computer case. Meanwhile you have taken down power for the entire city as your usnit happens to suck back 600 amps After all that you get some way cool 3dmark scores though :cool: :p

you would have to have a very big motherboard for it, otherwise it would cover things like spare PCI slots or memory or even the cpu !!

No **** it covers PCI slots. Coolers that take over the first PCI slot are very common. That one looks like 2 at minimum, probably 3, and it'd be 4 if you are using the tall Delta 50cfms (which are very very very loud fans :eek: )

Not the CPU and memory though, that's above the card. :)

I'd love to see someone strap an Alpha on there with a Delta 80cfm. It'd take up the whole PCI slot array :D
