Hi Guys!
I recently done my "blue slot 1 build" (all hardware even Voodoo 2, mobo, and ram and all other are on Blue PCB) - I'll write about it more soon.
Thanks to you I've found great motherboard (Slot 1, i820, rambus + ISA) and I'm starting the "green slot 1 build"... It will fit P3 1GHz fsb133, Canopus spectra X21, Green Obsidian2 200sbi and lot of other cool and exotic stuff.

But one of elements in this build is really important - its great cooling solution. I would preffer it was all black… but there are some "behemoths" that I would welcome in it with open arm.
As I ask you for a help with green i820+isa motherboard and I received it this time I'm also asking for help...

Can you help me getting / finding whatever some kind of extreme cooling for Pentium III slot 1?
Maybe some of you have it somewhere in boxt with other stuff... or someone is thinking of selling it on some popular site or... whatewer 😀 Please help...

BTW look what kind of crazy-extreme monsters were produced back in the day:
Alpha P3 125

Ten years ago or so I bought an aftermarket GPU cooler, made some custom mounting brackets for it and stuck in my slot 1 P2. It was a rather simple cooler with four heatpipes. A single 120mm fan running low speed rough aimed at it still kept the CPU very cool. If I where you I would look into something similar.

I would look for P3 CPUs with huge OEM coolers attached. Add a fan if you like.

But as I said it has to be original. I don't like DIY stuff in my builds.
