Passive cooling is one of the holy grails of computing - a high performance system without any moving, and thus noise producing, parts. Streacom has been producing passive system cases for some years now, emphasising both quality and performance in their products. I've been looking to see what all the fuss is about for some time, and recently the opportunity has arisen for this to finally happen.
A while back, I looked at passive cooling, running a 65w APU under a giant Scythe Ninja heatsink. While the results were promising from a pure temperature perspective, the system was unwieldy, heatsink too big, and the experiment killed that particular motherboard soon after. Let's see how a properly engineered solution fares, shall we?
