So just what is the "Badong CPU Cooling Wizard"? Its basically a device with a duct that you install on your case and connect to a special CPU fan so that it cools the CPU with air from outside the case (air intake duct and fan system). Makes sense that it would be a bit cooler. The thing costs 20 bucks and comes with fans and duct with mounting brackets and everything needed to install. The verdict is that its noisy, but it did make a 3 degree Celcius temperature difference. Not much, but when you are overclocked or otherwise running hot that might be enough, and for 20 bucks . . .?

Hey, they stole thier product name from "Kung Pow: Enter the Fist"!! Proper citation is below: The Chosen One: "Killing is wrong. And bad. There should be a new, stronger word for killing. Like badwrong, or badong. Yes, killing is badong. From this moment, I will stand for the opposite of killing: gnodab." By the way (and completely off topic...sort of like the rest of this post), you would think this movie was incredibly lame and unfunny by watching the previews that were on TV a while ago, but when you actually see it, you realize it is freakin' hilarious!
