i have is7 mobo. i think nb fan is very loud (7000 rpm?) will this give good performance (as good or better than stock is7 nb cooler) i am overclocking a lot.

You should get Arctic Silver Ceramique. It's better AND cheaper. It comes in a 2.7g syringe which should last you about 20-30 applications.

Nope, it's just their new compound. Works better and it's non-conductive. You might be thinking of their Arctic Alumina Epoxy.

If you're not stuck on getting AS, Nanotherm PCM+ has been getting amazing reviews and it's easier to apply, or so they say. If I didn't already have syringes of AS3 and Ceramique, I would pick some of that up.

as for the nb cooler, i don't think a passive cooler will be better than an active cooler.... if you want something cheap look at a TT tiger 1 maybe... if you into excessiveness like me look into this http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/minochcokit.html

Stan03 - I was looking at that hsf for the nb but it looks like I'd have to epoxy it on, which I'd rather not do. The 40mm fan glued on to the stock hs works very well and it's cheap I had the 40mm fan which was on an old P133 cpu.

Don't know if this is out of place or there's something obvious I'm missing, but SVC also has the CNPS-7000Cu for 36.99, though they don't carry the PCM+ that I saw.

I read that you cannot use a 7000cu with the TT Tiger? The 7000cu is so big that it does not allow enough room for the tiger?

Oh, dern that sucks... and about the price... some people don't have extra heatsinks lying around, and have no extra parts whatsoever because they are new... did you think of that? im talking from personal experience.

With the stock nb and a 40mm fan, I have no problems with space using a 7000ALCu.
