Newbie looking for advice

John:

A Power Logix Case ($129) will lower the heat by 5-10 degrees C just 
because it is a bit bigger and moves the DC/DC Card out into the 
airflow.  So if I were putting a dual processor into my cube I would 
definately use the PL Case. (Just order the case when you order the 
Processor - PL has the only duals)
