Hi,
I learned everything I know about overclocking from this forum and I have to say this site has alot useful information about overclocking. I got a computer about 4 monthes ago and I barly knew what a stick of ram did and my friend had to help me build it, now im overclocking the darn thing. During that 4 monthes my boss was into it also and was trying to help me cool this puppy off and he bought me two pairs of fans one pair are 4.25inches and the other are noisey butt little turbo 3.25 inche fans. So I put the big ones on the left side panel right over the processor sucking air out and it seems to work perfect with my thermal orb heatsink. The little pair are sucking in on top of the case right over the ram, just out of the way of my dvd player. Like I said I just built the computer several weeks before this. But those darn fans didn't do one thing but make it sound like a mucsle car. I was pretty darn pissed because it took so long to install that crap ;-( hehe. Another big problem with the temp is that I live in a 130sqft room, on the 2nd floor, and the worst part is I have a 5ft.x5ft window facing west, basically my rooms a fruity cubical that acts like a green house from 1 o'clock in the afternoon till the suns down. Then my boss had a good idea and gave me this grangier catalog where he bought the fans from and told me maybe you could find a little indoor swamp cooler or something. I found something that everyone should get if you have a business account with the grangier parts store near you. I got a brand new Frigdaire Gallery room air conditioner for 200$ it was on sale from 225$. It has 5950 BtuH and with my room measements all I needed was a 5000BtuH cooling power. It has a remote control and thermestat. But retail this thing costs $425. I once thought about water cooling but now Im as chilled just as much as my cpu is in the summer. Now doesn't water cooling seem like a rip off and not to mention a huge gamble for your system? I also use it as beer cooler when there warm from your car.
