Best Heatsink and Fan for 2500 Barton

[slickg]

Hello,

I'm looking for suggestions on the best possible heatsink and fan for my 2500 Barton. I would assume that all copper would be the best. I am kind of worried about the spacing on my NF7-S as well, I need a heatsink that will fit on that particular board...can you guys give me some suggestions?

Thank you for your time!

I just wanted to make sure, would a volcano 12 fit on my Abit NF7-S? I know there are some size limitations. Thanks

Nah, go for a Thermalright heatsink, they're some of the best. My Barton has an SLK900 on it, runs like a champ @ 2300mhz, @ 36C idle, and 46C load. Or something like that, I never use the damn thing, I'm a Intel boy at heart. heh.

Danger Den, Asetek, Swiftech or Aquastealth water cooling kits, if you really want the best, or if you plan to OC to any reliable degree.

Thermalright SLK900A.
Look at my Sig. I run all my fans at very low rpms, and my system is really quiet.

I can't sell it, my company gave me money to build it as a "work computer." It's a mediocre computer at best, 2300mhz, NF7 motherboard, 512mb corsair, and a gf4ti4400.

no need for high end thermalrights, my older SLK700 keeps my 2500@2.1gigs@36C/43C fine.
