Summer


Over the past couple of months, I've built three new PC's to run the WCG project. I have two machines running Intel hexa-cores and a third PC using a Core i7-860. It had been awhile since I built a PC. The first thing I noticed is that heatsinks have gotten a lot bigger, especially the better ones. One of the heatsinks I bought is the Noctua NH-D14 (see pic). It's even bigger than it looks. But it does a good job of cooling.
