 | i put one on my soyo kt400 dragon ultra platinum but i'm not sure if it's making much of a difference, it's good to have the added protection though |

| ya, alot of the nforce 2 boards w/ out active cooling need it... like hte epox ones and and the asus, and FIC... now w/ your' soyo, of course it won't cause hte soyo already had active cooling, if you ahd active cooling, it probally won't help much. |

 | i read that the crystal orb cools better, both the iceberq and orb are copper but the orb moves about 4x the air, iceberq=3.5cfm crystal orb=12.5cfm |

| ya orbs are better they move more air around, some high end mobos like this gigabyte one i got, has a nice chipset sink on it, i guess if you have a crappy one, then it would help in the longrun, whether ocing or not |
