    i was looking around for some coolers recently and i like the look and the size of the thermaltake Massive23 over most other coolers out there, but from what i have seen, the two intakes on the bottom of the m17x r3 are on wither side, although the cooler has one very big (230mm) fan located dead center, will it send enough air to the side vents or be almost useless other then looks? what are other coolers you guys have used, and how well do they work? i know this should have been posted in the accessories. forum but its really model specific so i posted it here
    edit: i wouldn't mind if it was an AC powered model rather then usb to save a usb port but whatever works, if i have to ill but a usb hub and plug it into that
