Hey guys,

Just need some advice. I just ordered an Athlon 1800 and it comes with the heatsink and fan from what i have read in this forum is that i should not use the one they send.

So which one to get? i am building:

Athlon 1800 xp
Epox 8kha+
400 watt ps
reflections case w/5 fans
SB audigy 24 bit x gamer
Creative 16x dvd
Que 24x cd-rw
3 com 10/100
radeon 8500 agp
Quantom 30gb 7200

they arn't that bad when used with a couple of case fans, i would however look at the alpha, sk6 or swiftech, there isn't much between then and they are the best if you plan to overclock on air
