WOW
this opens up to another world to overclocking!

and low noise computing!!

awesome!!

wonder how well it will fit the mobos though since the adapter seems kinda big
and what mobos it will be compatible with

Can't speak for compatibility but I'd hope the adapter has been engineered to fit inside the HSF housing of the P4. (A standard size).

overclocking through an adaptor is always iffy

Very clever idea! I wonder if there are potential problems with BIOS.

Seems intel wouldn't want the promotion of alternatives to things other than their latest incentives.
