Advantages: Awesomely efficient cooling of your CPU Disadvantages: means removing your MOBO to install it (But it is well worth it!)
cooler is a good 35% more efficient than the fins that you get with your CPU chip.
In addition to the outstanding perfomance of the six heatpipes in dissipating excess heat, the thing looks awesome. To those of you that want to "boyrace" your comps and have see through panels so that you see what you have invested your hundreds of pounds on... IE Uber graphics cards, SATA drives. 120mm cooling fans etc etc. At night the thing looks fantastic with its cool blue l.e.d. lights.
You can also add an extra exhaust fan to the back of the cooler. I have done this for security and more efficient airflow. by security I mean that even if one fan packs up the remainder has more than enough power to stop the computer from overheating.
It does its job, it looks fantastic! It is very well machined and is adaptable to almost every cpu ...

Advantages: Authentic Coffee, Clean, tidy premises, 1st class ambience and atmosphere Disadvantages: Food range is not so great value.
Caffe Nero is a leading Coffee store Retail Outlet located in many high street, town center, and Airport Lounge venues across England, wales and Scotland.
The company sells, Coffee as its main product. Also they stock Tea, cold refreshments, panini sandwiches, cookies, crisps, Chocolates, cakes, and sweets.
What I find that makes cafe nero different to other coffee Retail Outlet's is almost a combination of excellent Coffee, and a high standard of Customer Service.
The Music in the background of the store is subtle and light. This allows people to read a newspaper, to socialise with friends, family, or to enjoy a relaxing cup of Coffee in relative peace and quiet. The atmosphere is what makes caffe nero a pleasant and welcoming place to visit.
The staff seem to be team organised. I have seen Table's been cleared ...

Advantages: Keeps my drives nice and cool, Cheap Disadvantages: One fan began to make horrible noise
This is a great cheap way to add a cooler to your hard drive. My hard drive was constantly getting overheated and ended up cutting out often.
So I went on a mission to find a hard drive cooler that will allow me to continue to use the 3.5" bay. And I found this!
When you get this, it comes with screws and an inbuilt power splitter, incase you're out of moldex conectors. You screw the cooler onto the bottom of your hard drive with the screws that came with it.
Once you've plugged in the power it should be already to go. Turn on your computer, and you're able to see the fan working it's wonders. The fan does an excellent job at cooling my drive.
The only problem I have is after a while one of the fans malfunctioned and ended up making a horrible loud noise. To solve, I just cut this fan off. The cooler still worked fine for me ...
Akasa NERO classic design combines peak performance and near silent operation. A multi-platform cooler is designed for the entire range of Intel and AMD current processors. 3 x 8mm ultra high capacity U heatpipes are installed with direct CPU contact for rapid heat transfer. Direct contact eliminates a thermal resistance thereby increasing efficiency. 46 high grade aluminum profiled fins ensure optimum heat dissipation. A 120mm PWM fan is mounted using anti-vibration siliconized rubber pins giving whisper quiet cooling. The product design has been refined to ensure ultra quiet and exceptional cooling for CPUs up to 150W TDP (Thermal Design Power). Installation is easy using push-pins (Intel) or cam-lever (AMD) mounting mechanism. Akasa NERO can be assembled horizontally or vertically (in desktop or tower chassis) as the heatpipes work independently of installation direction.
