Intel's latest answer does not lack for weight - it weighs a mind-boggling 3.8 pounds, most accounted for by the copper base:
The fan is an 80 x 38 mm rated at 213 cfm at 8500 rpm:
Intel's skunk works has developed an interesting answer to Prescot's heat profile, although users are warned that there is a potential for long-lasting damage to hearing; in fact, Intel plans to include health warnings on the heatsink's packaging to comply with relevant OSHA standards.

Here's some pictures:

    Someone just found the Urban Dictionary, apparently...

    Yes, I was referring to the 2nd definition. I didn't know there was any other definition. Now I need to figure out a way to work the first definition into everyday conversation :D

    I find Urban Dictionary quite usefull when someone is using slang.
    Remember I am across the pond.
    In Denmark we do not hear all the slang expressions, because English is not the native language. There is a lot of slang in Danish though.
    For example we use kilometers and litres instead of imperial measurements. We also use Celsius instead of Fahrenheit.
    There is a lot of room for confusion. :wtf:

    Good luck on working def. 1 into a normal conversation. ;)
