*edit* Check this HSF out then read my post cuz this is really why you cliked here
I need a good HSF for a case that has very little airflow (i'm currently working on a way to fix this)...I'm looking for maximum cooling for the CPU. At this point it runs around 51degree with a load. At that temp it get a little flakey so i need to cut it down...a lot. I don't care if the thing sounds like a jumbo jet plain i just need this friken thing cooled off. The CPU sits underneeth the powersupply and the stupid case doen't have any exauset fans, so i'm cutting a hole. What is the best HSF for my situation (i know i need some air flow through the case and i'm working on that *grabes saw*) I've been looking at the SK6 with the Delta black label fan...I have also been looking at the Gladiator (www.crazypc.com) and I found this awsome copper HSF with silver plating at www.plycon.com it is the Silver Mountain. Please if you have any suggestions I'm open to them.
I can't cut the sides of the case because it has plastic over the steel. BTW this is my Girlfriends computer, so it kinda needs to look nice, so that is why i haven't simply cut the sides and put in a 120mm fan
Would a shim help any, and are they risky to use?
