Who really cares when it is inside your computer... And why the hell do you have a case window anyway? Do you want everyone to know you spent more on your video card than your car? And does this monster vid card help compensate for something pretty personal?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[supercujo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 5th 2007 1:29AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cooler Master's GeminII heatsink overlord]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/04/cooler-masters-geminii-heatsink-overlord/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/04/cooler-masters-geminii-heatsink-overlord/</guid><description><![CDATA[Too bad a motherboard standard hasn't been introduced that puts the CPU socket on the "backside" of the motherboard. With a case designed for such a specification, the heatsink could draw in cool outside air directly, and even exhaust it back the outside. Also, the heatsink could literally be the size of the side of the case.<br><br>Of course, we are talking about an industry that each time that when switching from PCI to PCI Express, missed the opportunity to flip the components to the other side of the board (as they were with ISA boards), so that heat producing components (especially on the graphics card) would be facing upward in a tower case.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Lonnie McClure]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 5th 2007 3:08AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
