Unlike the ATX, the placement of all chip sockets in the BTX is defined in order to provide sufficient air flow over the processor and display adapter. (Balanced Transfer eXtended)--a new chassis design that uses larger, quieter cooling fans and provides ample room for today's faster and hotter-running processors and other internal components. BTX channels air directly over the processor to prevent overheating Overheating An economy that is growing very quickly, with the risk of high inflation. that can lead to component breakdown. Libraries, medical labs, and classrooms will benefit from the lower capacity fans that save energy and reduce fan noise. Visit www.gateway.com for more information. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] |
