Judas · Sep 23, 2004, 12:34 AM

drakesteakn · Sep 23, 2004, 12:56 AM

Vampyromaniac · Sep 23, 2004, 01:57 AM

Seriously the SLKs are better performers than that heatsink. I'd check out Thermalright coolers. Theres the normal copper beast or the one with heatpipes. I dunno how well the heatpipe one does(it performs AT LEAST as well as the normal version...maybe better) but for the price I'd say the normal one is best. Avoid the aluminum ones though unless you just want a prettier heatsink(imho the aluminum ones are better looking. of course worse performance though)

drakesteakn · Sep 23, 2004, 04:12 AM

i use the XP-120 cooler from thermalright. uses a 120mm fan. best cooler i have ever had. dropped my temps 9C from stock and lowered my system temps by 10C.

GutterPunk · Sep 23, 2004, 06:23 AM

hawgshead had a similar drop with the same heatsink... highly recommended...!

drakesteakn · Sep 23, 2004, 08:29 PM

no it is not. the XP-120 is the best one out of those. read the reviews.

GutterPunk · Sep 23, 2004, 08:35 PM

the sp-94 had its arse handed to in the reviews i read, and gosh i forget where it was... hmphhhh

Geminiwave · Sep 23, 2004, 11:31 PM

odd.

Well just get the SLK anyway. I love those. No heatpipes or expiriements...just pure copper unsoldered in a VERY VERY nice pretty heatsink. Best temps ive seen for heatsinks too.

Give it a shot.

Geminiwave · Sep 24, 2004, 07:04 PM

after you change your timings and BEFORE you load windows...RUN MEMTEST86!!! Its a boot disk(or boot CD) and it is a brilliant piece of software. OR should I say Freeware since its free.

Use it.

Use the memtest luke!
