Read this article and definitely watch the video: http://www.extremetech.com/computin...t-dust-immune-and-almost-ready-for-prime-time
The heatsink IS the fan! This definitely has some pro's and con's worth considering...
Its quiet, small, really efficient, dust-resistant, and it looks sweet! (I wonder if it could me stained or painted or have built in LEDs...)
But, with metal blades, it seems a lot more dangerous than a fan. It would also be spewing hot air in every direction inside the case making it hell to direct a steady airflow.
What do you think?
