Re: CPU coolers
Here is the link where I got it.
Newegg.com - ARCTIC COOLING Freezer 7 Pro 92mm CPU Cooler - CPU Fans & Heatsinks

Some people choose to use a different paste than what already comes on it, and I've done the same in the past, but I figure whatever come on it should be sufficient or the MFG wouldn't use it, they know more about this stuff then I do.

Re: CPU coolers
I got Everest stressing my CPU and the temp has been fairly steady at 53*c
I'm thinking about letting it run all night to see if it will go down after it gets burned in good.

Re: CPU coolers
Well no matter what I can't be happier. The temp's stay nice and steady all day and all night. No more shall we say mood swings here. Since I trust your judgement in these matters, let me know if you get more goodies!!!!!
