I'll toss my comments in here. I use a Intel CA810E motherboard with various processors in a 1U case and I've never seen a heat problem. The key IS the CPU fan. I use the low profile thermaltake orbs. They push a LOT of air across the fan and I haven't seen the temp on the cpu's get over what I'd see typically in a larger case with a "correctly" sized heatsink and lots of fans. -forrest On Thu, 12 Jul 2001, Chuck Rock wrote: > Date: Thu, 12 Jul 2001 12:53:42 -0500 > From: Chuck Rock <carock@epconline.net> > To: freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: RE: Intel ISP1100 or similar 1U experience with 4.3 stable > > You said below while dirtbagging this guy's comments.... > > > cpu.
