With GHz so inexpensive and so "irrelevant", perhaps the new name of the game should now be changed to "underclocking"--such that we may be able to do away with the CPU fan.

I have an ASUS K7V333 MB. I like it very much because, among other things, it is very quiet. Also it has this "Q-Fan" feature which will automatically reduce the rpm of the fan when the temperature being monitored drops below a threshold value.

I am thinking about underclocking my Athlon XP 1800+ so that it may only require passive cooling.

Anyone has any ideas/suggestions?
