I don't want my CPU to be eaten by el Diablo...

[soupmoose]

My setup:

DFI Lanparty NF4 Ultra-D
Athlon 64 3000+ 939 (Venice)
2x512MB OCZ Value VX (OCZ4001024WV3DC-K)
XFX 6600GT
FSP 500W AX500-A PSU
WD 120GB SATA
WD 160GB IDE
NEC 3520A
Codegen 6097-QS Case

I'll be doing some moderate OCing, and I'm wondering if I'm safe with the stock HSF on the CPU. If not, I'll be taking suggestions for something under $40 that I can throw on the sucker so I don't tun my computer into a fog machine 🙂.

BTW, the case has mesh sides/partly mesh top, and three 80mm fans (side, back, top).

depends on what moderate means!

Seriously though, if you've got the dough, just get yourself one of the Zalmans listed here; i've got both the Copper and the Aluminum/Copper model but i don't notice much of a difference.
