Hello,

I have a XP1900 now but will be upgrading to a Xp 2800 chip soon. Can some of you guys point me to a good heatsink/fan combo that is less than $50 and is on the quiet side? Also... Instead of the 2800chip, I may go with an Oc'ed 2500 chip... but I imagine either way the heat output would be roughly the same?

Thanks

uhh...the last barton 2500+'s I have bought didn't overclock as well as one I bought a year ago.
My old one runs 3200+ speed with 17.5 volts, but 2 newer ones I have bought won't get there no matter how many volts I apply. One won't even stay stable above 190FSB!

Might keep that in mind when deciding on a processor.

Yea, current desktop chips arn't that hot...go for mobile xp's.
Another vote for Zalman if it fits!
