Alright I have $150 bucks to spend. What should i go for? I was thinking about getting a raptor and maybe having a raid thing set up with my 7200rpm sata hdd. ..would that work?hehe ...then I was think about getting one of them nice zalman hs/f. The retail one is sorta...eh. Any suggestions?
 
Actually let me give you my specs...

asus p4c800-e del.
p4 3.2 c ..retail fan
ocz 3200 1 gig
9800 pro
120 gb. sata 7200 rmp
52x cdrw
 
Get a Zalman HSF, then another 120 SATA 7200 drive same brand as ur current one so u can run in RAID but that means u have to format both hd's i think. OR you can get Zalman HSF and DVD+/- R burner.
 
Hehe cool input so far. Yeah I've been thinking about getting a dvd burner but it wouldn't really help me out too much as I have nothing to burn. My speakers are big ol stero ones so I'm fine with those. Should I just save my money for something else?

and ps


....er?
 
hmm ive come to the decision, that quieting my system isnt going to work, because the noisest thing is the psu. I dont want to shell out money for a new one, and I don't know if i could sell the old one...so I guess its not worth it. I think im gonna go with getting a the zalman for now. thanks

Go rent er buy some DVD Movies for backup and start accumulating more Data. Hell you have a whole WWW to look into for interest as well :roll:
 
Get an Audigy 2 ZS sound card. My cousin got one, and combined it with a 6.1 speaker system, I was AMAZED to see how much better it was than my SB Live! with my 5.1 speakers. Or you could always just get a DVD burner, those make backing things up a breeze.

Swap the fan in your PSU for a quiet one.

Is that hard? I don't want to screw anything around. Any recommendations on what fan to get? Thanks again.

A Panaflo L1A should do fine. What kind of power supply do you have?
