Cooling solution required

Hi,
As posted earlier, iam upgrading to the following config this weekend (in India)

Mobo : MSI - RS480M2-IL (integrated VGA, S-ATA Raid, PCI-E 16X, Micro ATX)
Proc: AMD Athlon 64 - 3000 - 939 socket


Since I read that this board generates lot of heat, could anyone recommend the best cooling method to beat this ?

Pl suggest any good cabinet.

TIA
Raghu
 
Phase change or cascade would be the BEST cooling solution for it. 😛

Of course there's always the XP-90 or Zalman 7000/7700
 
Since that board doesn't oc worth anything (no bios options for it), I think you'd be just fine with the retail hsf. Venice and Winchester cores run very cool and unless you have insane heat and no A/C, I think you'll be fine.

That being said, the Zalman 7000ALCU or the Thermalright XP-90 are both very good hsf's and don't weigh too much.
