thanks a lot again, at the moment im think its between the Zalman GS1000 for that price and what seems to be quality i cant see how you could do much better, However i have my parts now and i think that they are only released in the uk in about 3 weeks? ive looked on quietpc .com and it says due...

whats really high? i only intend to go to about 3.2ghz which i would have thought is only a mediocre oc? I will be using air cooling.

I basically need to know which motherboard would be the easiest for me to overclock a Q9450 using 8gb of 1066 DDR2?? I was looking at one of the asus boards like the strike II as it seemed to have some sort of overclocking program that did it automatically for u??

Xigmatek HDT-S1283 this the 1 you mean? Looks good if it is however im worried about the noise it says about 20~32 dBA compared to this i was looking at its pretty noisey how does this compare? http://www.quietpc.com/gb-en-gbp/products/intelcooling/asus-triton-79 or do you think this is overkill...

Thanks for the Advice, i did wonder about that. In terms of the mobo i have possibly come to a new conclusion, as of yet there is no 790i SLI DDR2 board, but there are X48 DDR2/DDR3 boards. I might go for that with the DDR2 then in the future i can buy 2 ATI cards and upgrade to DDR3 What do...

hi guys, Im building a new pc and i got hold of a 9800gx2 at a cheap price, and now that i jumped at that opportunity im starting to regret it as im finding all sorts of info about not getting full performance out of the card without the right motherboard. I think ive reached my limit of...
