Ya my rigs back then had like 4X-6X 80mm case fans, 2X 80mm PSU fans, and 1X 80mm or 92mm CPU fan. They were LOUD, but acceptably cool. I wasn't well versed enough at that time to understand fan noise quality, cfm, etc, so I just made sure every intake and exhaust port was used and that the fans weren't too cheap so they would actually last more than a few years. That was when LED fans actually meant something to me and had to be taken seriously into consideration when choosing. Since LED's added like 10% performance, so ya know... |
Yeah lol. The cheaper and tackier, the better. And those god awful edgy gamer cases with shiny plastics decals and bad quality steel. Good times.
Iirc it was a decent cooler with good reviews. I think I used it for my P4 build. Probably not very efficient due to the small heatsink and lack of heatpipes.. but it was cool though and very unique looking.
