Which completely nullifies any argument Kraetos had. Sorta. It's really all about the volume of air moving out of the system. Even in water cooling, the water is just there for heat capacity. A faster, louder fan profile fixes the heat issue in the Mac Pro as long as its users can accept a hum rather than virtual silence.
