domenicz24 Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 HOLY $**T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This fan is AWESOME!!!!!! IDle MB temps before were 50-52C And running games for 30 minutes would heat it to 62C...put the fan on....idle MB temp at 33C!!!!!!!!!! Yes that's a almost a 20C drop in temp...it is probably due to my case being VERY small...I have the ASUS Terminator K7 case....about 50% bigger than a shuttle PC.... Of course I did a lot of reading and research into it and I would like to thank the guys here at overclockers club for doing the review and helping me make my decision.....Unreal Tournament 2003, here I come...

TiM Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 I'm sorry. Tornado is company or model? <_ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilMB3017 Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 Tornado is a model, is by Vantec I think? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiM Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 Yeah. That's it! Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 Yeah, Vantec makes them. However, they do indeed sound like a "tornado" so, consider yourself warned Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiM Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 Btw, do Zalman coolers (silent ones) can be ok for overclocking (+20-30% Mhz)? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilMB3017 Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 Not that well, as compared to other cooling soultions. If you are looking for something silent, good luck. It's not easy. The Volcano 7+ is okay for the Celeron I see in yoru rig. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiM Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 But it's noisy I think. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
