Cool PC / Plus
Overclocking
is one highly popular method for increasing system performance
– be it overclocking your CPU/motherboard, RAM or simply
your Graphics card. All of these can improve performance
greatly & all of them have 1 side effect – Extra heat.
Heat leads to Hot devices, Hot devices
leads to crashes/lockups. Lockups lead to the dark side (sorry).
The
2 Cool PC Plus (& regular) exist to eliminate a lot of
this heat by blowing cooled air at the most effect components,
most directly ISA/PCI/AGP expansion cards (Sound card, modem,
graphics card, etc.) & indirectly it can cool your systems
RAM & processor/motherboard by increasing air circulation.
The 2 Cool PC features a fairly innovative design to most
cooling systems around, by using 1 large fan it can blow
cooled air both across & at effected devices.
So
how well does it work? Read on.
