Hi,
My setup will soon to be as follows(late october or november and you will soon see why) but I need some cooling advice(becuz I am a newbie at this cooling thing and I dont want my new comp bursting into a flaming inferno)
Geforce 2 GTS 32 DDR OEM (I dont really plan to O/C this. just a bit
)
Socket A TBIRD 800 or 850 which depends if their prices hit about 200$ or less(I plan to O/C this thru multiplier, and prolly FSB)
AMD760 MOBO
128 MB PC2100 DDR Ram (stated on Microns site...)
SB Live! X-Gamer
3COM NIC 10/100 3C905C-TX
7200/66 MAxtor Diamond Max Plus Drive (I know I know but 140$ for a 40+ gigger was the price to beat..)
DVD 12/40x Toshiba
Plextor 12/10/32A
Floppy Drive
and some other stuff to fill out the PCI slots like maybe a dvd decoder card or those new AIW Radeons with TIVO feature. Also no scsi devices are in this setup, so that means a bit less heat.
Now with the setup I have here(produces lots of heat when O/Ced), I basically would like some really good cooling reccomendations, basically I am going towards AIR COOLING, not water cooling, refridgeration cooling or peltier cooling, just air cooling, such as for the CPU, vid card, etc.
Right now I am leaning towards buying 3DCOOL Tornado 2000 Full Tower with 300 Watt PS for 230$ shipped(I would get the 3DCOOL 1000 but full tower version just 30$ more so what the heck and yes I know they may be overpriced but still..). For the Socket A HSF, and Video Card Cooling, and overall system cooling, I am clueless as to what the best or overall good air cooling solutions there are out there. ANy reccomendations on CPU Heatsink/Fan is appreciated as are any other general reccomendations for keeping this system chilled or at least at room temperature with the air cooling solutions out there(I plan to put this sucker in an always air conditioned room, not in some hot spot in an obscure area heh)
