Need advice for new cooler
« on: July 03, 2003, 09:15:32 PM »
Hi. I have to tap it for my cooler to start. It's a cooler for an 040.
I don't want an old one, soI 'd like advice on where to get a new one, the more silent and thin possible, but still efficient. ( I know it's contradictory).

You could try looking for an after market graphics card cooler.computer fairs sometimes have 40 mm fans other than that something from an old 486 cpu cooler might work. what country are you in.
I once had an amigaone xe but sold it .

Vantec ICEBERQ4 PRO

Very nice cooler looks great performance is top notch. I recommend Artic Silver Thermal adhesive for fantastic results

Not a cheap cooler but real nice and should easily be found on the web

Brought one from someone at the local user group for my Amigaone

Thanks all for the suggestions.
  :-D
Those chipset coolers are cool but way more thatn what a 040/40 needs (I think), and too big. Watercooling yeah right..  :-D Maybe I could connect my amiga to my fridge instead:-?
It's so easy to get a 486 cooler but when  presented with thousands of new coolers on the net  I started thinking wich one would be better specialy since I like silent computers like the classic Amigas.
I'm gonna give it a try at one of those chipset coolers, maybe from the same brand of the one Kurt refered ...
