I am looking for a heatsink/fan for my CM Stacker 830 (Full tower). I am relatively new to the whole PC thing so I am unsure what to do for an aftermarket setup. Someone suggested to me the Tuniq Tower, but I don't know if I will have enough clearance with the side fan mounting bracket. Does anyone have any experience with this case that could steer me in the right direction?

Any help is a great asset to me as I am worried about wasting more money on this already nearing 3k endeavor all things considered.


Lastly is an 850w (OCZ GameXStream) enough to do some decent overclocking on an e6600 cpu and run two 8800gtx SLI?

I tried one of those wattage calculators and it is looking a bit scary. With the things I've mentioned and a water cooling system I am looking to be over 850w. I am screwed, aren't I?

I have the 830, and my thermalright ultra-120 fits without issue. This is a great heatsink, and I would highly recommend it, as do many around here.

Have you ordered that OCZ unit yet? If not, I would choose a different brand. Perhaps a Silverstone or PC Power & Cooling.

Yea, my system is here and fully installed. What is wrong with the PSU? Seems very solid to me and it came highly recommended. Is the Ultra 120 fairly quiet? The stock CPU fan that came with me e6600 is pretty loud. Thanks for the replied, by the way, sorry it took me a while to get back but I was without a PC for a couple days.

Sorry for the double post...

But Roboto, I was wondering what fans you chose to go with for the door panel and the top case fan? I am pretty new to all this stuff and not sure what I should be looking for in terms of fans. I don't want them to be super loud, but as loud as my PSU fan or the pre-installed CM Stacker 830 fans would be fine.

I have a Scythe infinity and i I couldnt first the one fan in above the heatsink.

Yate loons are good fans, quiet and cheap.
