Face it. You gotta plop down the cash in order to get some cooling for your system.

So the question is how much are you willing to spend?

I am willing to spend up to $99.99 because I know cooling is the most important part of my system's stability (and therefore overclockability)

I'm willing to spend a little bit, to get a nice post-retail heatsink/fan, but I sure as hell ain't going to spend that much, I don't think it's worth it, atleast it isn't for me.

I have spent hundreds...


First slot one stuff, then all the socket A stuff.

HD coolers, video chipset coolers, slot fans, Peltiers...


Ack! :confused:

I've done some stuff that not everyone would do, but I wouldn't pay for it.

I put my old Cel heatsinks on my V5 5500 after buying my Orbs from Sin2. I didn't pay anything extra for the video cooling, but it was there.


Actually, I puit holes in the side of my case as well, two of them, and still want one right through the front. need grills/filter grills for the holes still.

I don't have any cash at any rate...

That's why I borrow my neighbours Dremel tool to cut the case.
And fans and grills come out of old power supplies, damn good fans can be found in there.
