If you are going to sell it - do it now.

I would sell it - then build a AMD rig for the $$.

Hehhehehe, hope you enjoy the system. You should be fine with the thermaltake at 2.2 2.3 gigs. If you want to try more or to be on the safer side get the SKL948U. really sweet hs. Sell the P4 EE and with the money get a Mach II or a promy and oc the hell out of it or get a used one and buy a new video card :) I am missing the A64 setup so bad :( Hope you enjoy it :)

It is phase cooling. Somebody like Shimshim should be of more help since he owns one and I only wish I had one :)

Hi.

I am running this in my current 3.2EE. This is IMO the best heatsink on the market for high performance CPU's.

Thermalright SLK-948U w/Vantec Stealth 92mm FAN

Fry's doesn't sell anything you want. They might say they have it when you call, it may be on outpost, but they'll find some way to screw you after you drive all the way out there.... Bastards.

BTW, get a better fan if you're going for quiet. That fan is neither quiet or efficient.
