OK, I can see the need for power for running WinUAE (especially if you're talking about concurrent web browsing).

But what makes you think you need another i5 system for movies?
Media playback doesn't require anywhere near that much horsepower.

The identical computer argument makes sense.
"Airplane computers"! Ha! Love it!
I used to put LOTS of fans in my cases and high speed fans on processor and other high temp areas.

I've now learned to go larger and slower and concentrate on flow through the case and out. Much more efficient, cooler and quieter.
And no turbine sound.
