What Heatsink / Fan Combo Is This?

JL_COG · 29-March-03, 01:31 AM

Recently i saw a heatsink, copper base and aluminum fins (as best i recall) but the fan was the kicker. It had a side-mounted rotary fan blowing through a rectangular duct which stretched across the top of the fins (or rods?) that was supposed to be better than a circular fan with it's inheirent 'dead spot' in the center due the hub. PROBLEM IS i can't find it on the internet again anywhere and am very interested in one now that i'm facing a system redo (mobo, cpu, ram, etc.) can anyone help? JL_COG

that coolermaster aero 7 looks really cool. however, am opting for a p4. the aero 7 is so new i wonder if you can get just the fan and mount it on the swiftech mcx4000? wonder if the swiftech mcx4000 will fit on a msi 655max-ls? wonder if the msi 655max-ls is problematic? wish i could afford a hyperthreading mobo and cpu but i figured out how to BARELY fit a full system upgrade into a $750 budget by going with the following: 2.4GHz P4, above mobo, 2 sticks of Kingston 512Mb-333 ddr, pci usr performance pro controller based modem (no broadband avail here, waaahhh!), msi agp ti200 128Mb, wd 120Gb hdd, Dynapower Model# METIS CS-I3ASB.701 (Silver Black) ATX MID-TOWER CASE w/ 300W POWER SUPPLY - 2 x USB <-- that last is a paste. any advice regarding these parts, especially the mobo?
