Along the same line. I have a dual Opteron that came with 6 Fans,It had places
for 4 more. The other 4 were installed ,for a total of 10 fans. Of coarse ,this
is a Workstation and NOT a Desktop. I have been running Auto-player 232 1.0
every Night,all Night long, and the Sides of the P/Cs weren't even warm. The air
is sucked in threw the Front thru Filters,and blown out the rear. It's a little
LOUD,that's why I have Nicnamed It, the B-17,after the WW II Bomber,because It
sounds like One. Just wanted to add that. >>>>Mike
