So I don't intend on O/C'ing the CPU, (well maybe just a few hz). Anyyway, I have $30 to spend-what and where? I heard the SK 7 with smartfan 2 would be sufficient?...anyone know of any cheap places to get these?
 
that setup you mentioned would be overkill for a 1700 tbred b that's not being oc'd. if it's a tbred b than look into Speeze coolers at newegg. they're usually $8-16 and will be plenty. if it's a pally than go with the slk 7 and smart fan. it'd be worth it. or maybe just s reg 80mm 30 CFM case fan.
