Howzit gents
I'm not sure if a thread was raised regarding the following.
I have a mate who wants to swop me a fmic for the standard cooler.
The only problem I have now is that his setup does not have a throttle. Is it a good idea to go with that kind of setup(without a throttle). I have neva seen anything like that.
Is there anyone that can shed some light on how this works and what are the cons to running such a setup.
TIA
