I flashed it (which wasn't easy, given that Asus didn't think long enough  
to put up an ISO with the BIOS/flasher sw - even the manual tells you to  
use a freaking FLOPPY IMAGE) and AFAICT there's no difference in how the  
CPU fan behaves. The real bandit is of course the PSU which generates far  
too much heat for its own good.

Has anyone tried using an external PSU with the Pundit or any other box?  
How easy/hard is that to do? And why do they keep putting these PSU:s  
inside the boexes anyway? :)
