Fubar512 Posted July 9, 2014 Posted July 9, 2014 I was reminiscing about that "bad old days" of PC cooling and overclocking with a friend, who reminded me that I had once used a heat-sink topped off with an 80 mm 7200 RPM Delta "screamer" fan,to cool an OC'd Athlon XP CPU. I used to argue the point that the noise it made was worth the added cooling protection! I am surprised that I did not lose my hearing. To give those of you who are unfamiliar with those old Deltas sounded like, here's a video: If anything, It reminds me of the sound effects from "Earth versus the flying saucers:
