what sort of temps are you running at ?

 

[unknown]

at around 55C while playing games onece ove 65c

thats real hot, im not familiar with the performance but a waterchill kit with a 2 or 3 fan radiator and some quiet fans should work, costs about £200 though

Edit: just seen your in the states, i dont know what the prices are like over there maybe a bit more reasonable

thx, i will consider it. if you have any new ideas, feel free

... a P4 won't 'burn-out' it will just, err, run a little slower.



However, let us know how any alternative fair.

I've been thinking about getting this one if it helps...

Wow a cat from the U.S. I have not entered into the world of water cooling just yet but I have had my eye on one of these for a while. This is what I would get to start.......

Its a 5" bay water cooler, easy to install and seems to have alot of good reviews. At $100.00 USD is not that expensive when talking about water cooling.

The best advice I've seen in the reviews is to mount this baby as your very most top drive if possible, then mod in a top blow hole to increase its cooling ability. Seems as if it won't drop your idle too much but handles the load temps very well.

You should try to use the Arctic Silver 5 thermal grease, it really cools down your CPU; it cooled my CPU down a lot. I have an Athlon 64 3000+ used to be 56C full usage now only 39-42C full Usage. It's way too cheap for the result. $7 included shipping on Ebay for the 3.5Gram of Arctic Silver 5.

you could always go the DIY route and make your own setup

i all ready used Arctic Silver 5, came with my Thermaltake CL-P0025 90mm cpu fan. KINGWIN AWC Liquid Cooler System sounds nice. i will consider it but Zalman Reserator 1 Plus Water Cooling Kit is quite awsome. but its pricy around $280 USD. what do u think guys? but finley my computer will run almost silent, except the power supply fan.
check it out and plz, let me know what you think.

Hey you know I'd like it, an upgrade from the one I recomended at not much more in price. Hmmmm...... perhaps when the money tree blooms I'l have the extra cash to invest again.
