Need rec on Haetsink and fan for xp 2500 Barton

[curt100]

I need advise on a good, inexpensive heat sink and quite 80mm fan like a panaflo that will cool the above chip. Itis now running a 123 degrees F. I have a top 80mm and a side 80mm fan. I live where I have to order everything. Any help I will thank you for. Thanks

I'm using an ALX-800 with a panaflo U1A.

my athlon xp barton 2600+ has been running around 50C/120F (mid 50's C under load) for weeks/months on the stock heatsink/grease. the cpu is rated to withstand up to 80C i think (if not more). there is no reason to be especially worried. and if you want inexpensive solution i would suggest getting high quality thermal compound before a new heatsink. arctic silver 5 is supposed to lower your temps 5-10C.
