I´ve also notice that. Noctuas move air very fast in the external area of the fan, and that air spreads widely, another thing important is that in the center of the fan there is a big area where air just don´t move at all...

why do you use those vents to push air into the case instead of throw it out of the case?? Do you get better temps?

Thank you very much, I´ll search with that information and I´ll post here what I find.

I´m also waiting for the price to drop, I´ve read somewhere that x2 3800+ will be 50% off in 24 of july just for conroe´s release, so I think 35w ones will be that cheap as well... will see.
