    Well of course there's fans in it. The machine basically looks like a non-liquid cooled G5, except the voltage regulator heat sinks sit even with the 2.0 cooling radiators. Loo at the link I posted at the beginning of this thread, you'll see what it looks like.

    If anyone thinks that you could remove the fans from the system and rely entirely on the radiators without moving any air is absolutely absurd!
