Nah. Refrigeration is way better. 
For a HTPC though, there's really no reason to go with one cooling method over another- your goal is silence, not overclocking performance.

FALCON PUNCH!!!
Yes, the sound of silence is my goal. Having a laptop drive in there versus an old desktop drive makes all the difference. Now all I need to do is quiet down the processor fan and it's almost 100% silent.
Made some trades, this is the case I acquired for my second frontend:

Well, with all success comes a tiny bit of failure. I had to ditch the HVR-1600 card for another PVR-150.
Why? Conexant CX23418.
The 23418 is the upgrade from the good ol 23416. Among other things, it fixes the DMA nightmare that makes Hauppauge cards almost impossible to use on a board with a Via chipset (horrible DMA on a card + horrible DMA on the southbridge = PURE NIGHTMARE). The downside is there were so many cooks in the kitchen that nobody really knows exactly how it works. The dev team on the xxx16 chip apparently left and didn't document everything, along with other speedbumps in the process.
Long story short, 23418 support will be a little ways away, hopefully not *TOO* away seeing that Hauppauge is moving to the 18 chips on just about everything.
Once 18 support comes about, I'll grab another HVR-1600 or two.

MythGame is a plugin for Myth that manages emulators. It'll give a nice frontend GUI for all the consoles and roms with box pics, game info, so on and so forth.
hey is mythtv free? lol

FALCON PUNCH!!!
Yup.
fuck it. ima give it a shot then.
i wont be recording shows.
Ah, but not a PS emulator on its own, right?

Think ya quoted the wrong post, heh.
No. None of the emulation is done by Myth itself. The Mythgame plugin simply gives a frontend to all of the emulators and sorts your ROMS, gives em nice box art and general info on the game.
Getting it to work with the emus is easy.
Yeah, quoted the wrong post.
So what are you using to emulate the PS in Linux, and how well does it really run?
