Which is the best sub 50$ cooling solution for my cpu which doesn't take too much space?

My cabinet i think is around 6-8inches in width.

ArcticCooling Freezer64

1)I more or less know how memory dividers work.
2)Can't I get the Thermaltake?
3)How do I increase my overclocks? I tried 300 X 8 but it showed a BSOD.
4)Will raising the volts help to go to 270 X 9?

I got <28000 on 3d mark 2001SE default with CCC on nearly/max performance

You know, if you take a second and read what ppl like cmdrdredd and n7 are trying to tell you, maybe you wouldn't be such an ignorant forum troll...they are clearly trying to help, yet you just seem to ignore their advice and post random bits of your own useless ranting...n7 clearly told you that your knowledge of RAM dividers was wrong and even explained to you why, and cmdrdredd suggested to you the Freezer 64, yet you just blatantly ignore their advice like you know everything there is to know about overclocking...

People like you should be banned...

Heh i gave up trying to help him.

He obviously doesn't really want any help...

You got it wrong. I know exactly how the ram dividers work. You probably misintepretted me. For the second, I ask again is something wrong with the Thermaltake?

Can Windows show a log error due to corruption or due to unstable oc?
log error on startup, first time now.
Prime 7hr 58min stable, super pi 32m stable, 3d mark 06 05 01SE stable

Damnit, can an admin just ban him please?

Easy guys.... I'm about to take my first stab at overclocking starting sometime this week and I don't want to have to endure any residual 'omg bahnage' backlash from any of this...

I'm a very sensitive guy, ya know.... 😱

Constructive criticism - use spellcheck.

I'll keep my opinions to myself for now.

i myself, decided not to oc, and just to spend 300-400bucks to go with ddr2 800, the board anandtech reviewed for the core 2, and a e6300 core 2, its the cheapest solution, and it ends up being the best, because all i gotta do with my check after that, is replace the board with a high end one.(then again i fuxored my cpu oc'ing) normally with ram, the slower speed you get, like 333, the tighter the timings get. as in, at 400 you can run 3.3.3.5, with 333 you might run 2.3.2.4 or something of that nature

what you need to do is drop your ram speed to 133, that WILL NOT affect your cpu fsb speed, your ram speed and cpu fsb speed are seperate, thermaltake, is crap(99.999% of the time), they're loud and dont cool very well, they are for the most part, for show. thermalright the xp90, works very well and isnt insanely large, i have the xp120 and i rarely hit 40C, mostly mid/upper 30's. but this is also a very large heatsink/fan combo in a pretty big case as well. i also own both the xp-90(ran when i first got this comp) and the xp-120. both work very well, but the xp-190 obviously, works a little better.

and from now on, dont expect help from me if your not going to listen to anyone else.

Um, too late for that. He's an expert, just read his thread on him being an expert: link
