Um, what Giga-byte mobo? I can't think of a Giga-byte mobo that excels beyond other brands.

Interesting the cooler you have looks alike like the one GlobalWin released awhile back. I'm in the market for a new cooler myself..the one I have works very well just thinking about doing some overclocking now. I like the Alpha's but their sure a pain to put on and remove.

Are you referring to the PcToys Arctic Silver III?

Because if so, good choice. It's the best! I'm keeping mine in the firdge till my processor comes.

Hey, u didn't tell me what heatsink you're using...please share...
EDIT: Omg I'm going blind. Never mind. Nick heatsink though.
Post a picture please cuz I can't find which one it is on the website...but they all look nice.
