I just picked up a 5000+ BE and 2GB OCZ Platinum ddr2 800 for $109 + $30 mail in rebate from TigerDirect. It's been 2 years or longer since my last purchase of a cpu. Still running my Opteron 165 and 3800 x2 939.

What brands work well with MSI as well.

I'm looking to upgrade my memory and want to know if the DDR2 memory will work. Thanks! Christian J. Grest

Which way would be best? Having the fan blow onto the heatsink or pull away from? I have it blowing onto the heatsink itself.

bought an acrylic fan adapter along with a panaflo M1A 120mm fan. Temps don't seem any better. No worse, but not any better. The fan is stinkin' huge though. It barely fit with my video card just below it.

Never thought about trying a 120mm fan. Great idea. I'll try that. Oh, filters are clean(I clean them as well when idle temps increase a bit). Thanks. Christian J. Grest

I have the cool n quiet turned off. I couldn't find the temp target aspect. I'm using Bios ver. 1.37mod. Don't know if that makes a difference. Also, I'm using a Lian Li LL Warrior case. I did a little bit of re-arranging of my wires and such(hadn't cleaned that up since putting everything...

I have an MSI Neo2 Plat. board with an A64 3000+ running at 2.4GHz. Initially I was using a TT Tower112 heatsink with a TT UFO 92mm fan and AS5 thermal compound. The temps were around 42 degrees at idle and 55 degrees full load. Well, I swapped that out for a TT Pipe101 Heatsink using the same...

Got that thing on there yet? I'm not impressed with my Thermaltake Tower112 thus far and thinking about getting something else. Know anything about it? Thanks. Christian J. Grest

TTT

I'm using the Thermaltake Tower112 on my MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum board along with Thermaltake's UFO Fan. Temps using MBM are around 39-40 Degrees Celsius at idle and 50-52 Degrees Celsius running Prime95 Torture Test. Winchester 3000+ OCed to just over 2.2GHz. Hopefully I'll see some temperature...

Well, I put this thing on. Kind of a pain. I can only fit one fan on it because of it being kinda close to my video card. My temps are around 104-105 degrees F at idle using MBM. I was expecting a lot lower temps with this thing. The other thing I got to thinking was how heatpipes actually work...

At idle it's anywhere between 40-45 degrees. I don't imagine this is terribly high, but still room for concern since my last OC was a 2500+ Barton clocked to 2.3GHz and idled at like 36 Degrees. I'd hate to think that I wasted my money on this Tower112 heatpipe cooler. I was gonna try and put a...

while running Prime95 torture test? I'm running a 245 FSB. I'm using the Thermaltake Tower112 with a UFO fan. I'm currently between 52-55 degrees celsius. Any suggestions? Thanks. Christian J. Grest

Dang-it, only 8 characters...that's where I was messing up. Been a while since I messed with DOS much. Thanks.
