I did it last night. Ok several questions. Is there a good prog to check the cpu temp? When I hooked up the koolance mobo chipset cooler to my Geforce 3 it didnt like it. (they said it worked great for G3) http://www.plycon.com/koolgear.htm I say it didnt like it beause after 2 minutes the video card shutoff appearently. Any thoughts on the best way to cool my geforce 3? What is the best way to put on Thermal paste? I got some Artic silver 3. I just used my finger to get it spread over the chip part. I still need to get a fan for my radiator but will I see much of a change in the temp? Any recomendations would be nice. Oh I also am using the Koolance CPU 100W Liquid Cooler for cpu.

hmm..there's an artic silver guide on their main site...

I have a koolance 200W wb, works pretty fine. I never saw the point of buying a chipset cooler, I;d rather make my own, I mean, sheesh, crazy prices. I saw the vid koolance cooler at a shop near me, it was like 40 bucks for something the size of a loonie....

how's that 100W cooler working for you? I have one that I got fro free
