It is the SLK-900A and 92mm Tornado. What do you think about the noise so far? :) Pretty crazy as I'm use to near silent water cooling. Just for giggles I built up a case a friend gave me with a 'test' box (nothing special). Only special thing about it were the fans. It had two high rpm 120mm fans on the side and one 120mm fan on the top blowing out for exhaust. I took the liberty of adding two 80mm tornados in the back for exhaust because my hearing wasn't suffering enough.. and finished it off by adding that 92mm Tornado to the CPU. All that I can say about that is *ROFL*. Sounds like a vacuum cleaner running full blast. Not keeping it that way as Enricos Tornado setup goes back to him soon and it's much too loud to keep the 80mm tornados in there. 60db of wind tearing insanity was definitely interesting :) If you could email me the engine, settings, etc the Centrino used in the benchmark you talked about. I'll send a profiling binary your way some time tonight and we'll see what the thing can do. :) email: speedycpu@comcast.net Thanks.
