Take it from me, get into a real job for the summer. Try to get on doing construction/hard labor. It's good for your body, you learn quite a bit(saving moola in the future) the pay is better as you gain experience. As a bonus, a good summer of stucco work will make you more attractive to the babes. ...

Quiet Barton Air Cooling

The wife says my machine is too loud, I am getting a a different case and power supply, I now need a quiet HSF. Budget isn't a big concern but I don't want to overheat if I am running Prime95 all night.

I will not be overclocking. I do not want to water-cool.

Thanx

Since you posted a sex question to a "geek" website, I am sure this is a joke.
