I don't know about blowing up but I agree that the cooling fan has to be
good. I run a GlobalWin VOS32+ here and (as I said in another mail) my CPU is
overclocked so cooling becomes more crucial than under normal conditions.

Your average £2.50 fan will not manage !

Anyone who is serious about their PC and it's performance really needs
to look at http://www.overclockers.co.uk - a seriously good site for any PC
performance enthusiast and I've found the folks there to be very helpful
at all times :)



Cheers,

*Paul Ferguson* running Amiga and PC in total harmony...I wish ;)
