Oh, you're talking about the CardCooler.

Oh, you should shorten your signature...or put the specs in one line instead of on individual lines for each component.

pretty easy mod if you have a drill

No, overkill would have been using two 92mm Tornado fans instead of normal 80mm.

I used to be a computer cooling freak (and I have tons of fans in boxes to prove it), but I gave up on the idea of cooling my systems to the max because I eventually realized my computers worked the same with or without the extreme cooling (remember, I don't overclock). And I got tired of the noise.

Now I build with the idea of using the least amount of fans possible.
