So my question is will the kingwin arctic cooler be good for my system? I dont want to have subzero temps like -5000c I just want to get a few less degres. Im planing on gettin This Sytem (http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=35-124-005&depa=1) will this get me a drop in temps. Can you guys also suggest an alternative that is perhaps better.

your best bet is to build your own system, its cheaper, and it performs much much better

you know that kit actually works quite fine for the money. http://www.overclockers.com/articles1082/

It performs as well as good air coolers but you can also cool your GPU your chipset as well. My friend got 1 for $69 when it's on sale! He's running A64 CG at 2.4ghz

If you dont want to look into extreme overclocking but quiteness, this is a good kit for the money.

Do you think this will be a big improvement overe my cooler master? And what do you mean by build your own, do you mean i sould make my own waterblocks and stuff?

I know this isnt the kinda reply you'd want , but why not get a new vid card :eh?: ? I mean really ...its gonna give you the best performance overall .

Im getting a 6800nu im a few weeks along with the watercooling but im only looking on spending 100 bucks on a cooling system. Yea my video card sux right now but it runs good because i bolted in a p3 hsf so i could overclock it.
