Sorry pal but that hsf is waaaay not good enough for a whopping 1.33Ghz AMD!!! You need something more like a hedgehog, glaciator, SK-6, thermoengine blah blah blah. You might not have to put up with a Delta if you get a good YS-Tech fan but I would to keep temps down if I were you.

Game Instability is not always linked to your cpu. You may not have installed the AGP drivers correctly. Find your drivers and install them before your AGP card drivers.

Good luck on your new pc.

Hmmmmm best comparison for a delta is to a hairdryer..... it has a very annoying pitch, but it moves the air! I am running a MC426 (great HS!) with a sanyo Denkie that comes with it, and it is cool and (relitively) quiet. I also have a dual fan PSU, and two 120's, and my full tower sounds like a server..... BUT.. I run rock solid at 1636@102F so the fans work....

I have the delta 38, and that thing is very loud. Can any one show me where to get the YS Tech fan? or any suggesting for another fan? thanks

I live in the uk mate so I dont know if this info will be any good to you but you can get the ys tech fan from www.overclockers.co.uk and its only a few pound

The 60mm Delta 38 cfm is a whimp. If you have a closed case you will barely hear it unless you have nothing going on in the background. I have 2 Deltas running and they are NOTHING AT ALL in comparision to my main pc.

I have 16 fans in my main pc and the main one is LOUD! Its a 80mm 68cfm High Output Delta Screamer. I dont regret buying it though. Temps are sooo much lower now :) :) :)
