Because of the recent heated "debate" in the Antec Skeleton case thread I decided to move the more intricate part of the discussion (regarding fluid flow and thermal dynamics) to this thread where the information would better be available.
One (1) thing. Keep it civil. You disagree with a point say THAT.
Case Study:
WRONG
Joe User "Thermal Interface Material is a sham to make money of ppl head"
Joe Tech "You is a balls, that does improve transfer nabzor lOLZ"
RIGHT
Joe User "Thermal Interface Material is a sham to make money of ppl head"
Joe Tech "I Disagree. Thermal Interface Material is used to maximize the surface area as well as provide a denser substance than air to exsist between the heat source and sink in order to cool efficiently"
See BOTH cases Joe Tech is right but only in ONE case he shows his knowledge in a civil manner that also explains why he disagrees.
Lastly KEEP IT ON TOPIC. If you must stray, tie it back to the topic at hand somehow.
So to get the discussion started we shall enter again the question that was at hand before, in a fashion at least.
Q. Is an open or closed system most efficient for cooling?
(use the Antec Skeleton as the open reference and the 900 as the closed)
