I'm buying a new computer on July 1st for college. Here are the specs...
*AMD Athlon 64 3400+, 1MB L2 Cache, 64-bit Processor
*MSI nForce3 250 Chipset Motherboard for AMD Athlon 64 Socket 754 CPU, Model "K8N Neo Platinum" (MS-7030)
*POWERCOLOR ATI RADEON 9800XT Video Card, 256MB DDR, 256-bit, DVI/TV-Out, 8X AGP, Model "XR98T-D3"
*SAMSUNG 710N-Black 17" LCD Monitor
*(2)Corsair Value Select 184 Pin 512MB DDR PC-3200
*SAMSUNG 80GB 7200RPM IDE Hard Drive, Model SP0802N
My Questions is: What is the best hs/fan to keep my processor in the low 30's to 40's around mid usage
for around 15$-20$ not including thermal paste.
Is there any overwhelming outstanding HSF for the 3400+ that dominates all others?
Thanks for any replys.
