    ok i know a lot of you have the Zalman cooler.........how do you like it? i have heard of some people modifying it? did you modify yours? do you have the nc2000 or the newer ugly one?

    im really wanting to get a cooler for my M17x......im sure it will get here before my M17x which is fine cause that way i can use it from day 1 lol.

    im also considering the Lian Li cooler. (if i can find it) it seems to maybe have a better cooling area?? not sure


    anyway what cooler do you have and what do you recommend?

    I have the zalman nc2000 cooler an it is AWESOME. I love it, and I know you will love it too. I have posted a screenshot in the thread "fan upgrade" of my r2 on the zalman nc2000. I cant post the picture in this thread at the moment, because I am typing from my ipad, but you can find it if you look in the above mentioned thread.

    Can some one post a pic of an mx17 r2 or r3 on the NZXT Crylo LX,

    I have seen one sitting on a backwards NC2000... not sure I would buy a NC2000 if the best way to use it is backwards...

    Thanks~
