I quess that's as good an excuse as I've heard as to why I haven't seen an
video of you sailing upwind with the helm free.

I built my own P4 2.5 ... metal case.

Metal case? Does that make it better?

Yes actually ... especially in my climate. The metal allows for better heat
dissipation. It acts like a heat sink and draws heat from the CPU allowing
it to run cooler. The case is always cool to the touch.. even on hot days.
It's the surface area I believe. The 4 fans help as well. I'm running a RAID
system and have it overclocked to a slight degree.

My friend has a water cooled system on his and runs at very high threshold
overclocked speeds. His performance tests are way up there.
