need heatsink advise

[ferria]

hi all,

my cpu is still running too hot when playing games it gets to 56 C.
i did slowing it down to 2.0 ghz but this cant be the solution.
somebody out there must make a performance heatsink for my pentium 4 socket 423. i need some advise,links,names whatever will help me (maybe modif other heatsink,but this socket is huge)

what you guys think?

swiftech mcx 423, the best IMHO but very loud and pricey

is a Swiftech better than an Alpha cooler?

I have an MCX478 coming my way and I just can't wait to get it. Also if you order it from coolerguys it seems to be cheaper than what other places sell it for.

For Intel Swiftech is better... He has a Socket 423 so the best he can do is the Swifty 423, other than that there aren't many choises.

A good direct airflow on your cpu is the answer to your problem

Maybe just changing the fan with a higher flowing one will do the trick. Also if it is a heat soak problem punch a whole in the case and install a fan to flow cool air into the CPU area.
