After building my own system my brother got interested in doing the same. CPU wise he wants an AMD ATHLON XP 3200+ which we all know kicks butt. :good: But I suggested to him that he buy an OEM chip and get the heastsink seperate to see if he could save money. Anyone know of a really good heatsink for cooling XP 3200+'s under £30 or whatever that is in dollars.
For cheap, I would recommend a CoolerMaster XDreamII. It cost me $12. But it needs a fast fan. I use an AeroCool AEROFANS-X Series 80mm Case Fan. Around 52CFM. Not too loud, but noticable. around $6 sorry I don't know £. I have those. My sempron is OC'ed from 1.64-1.9ghz. 44C on full load. Just something cheap But if you want something better, I like thermaltake. Copper is better than aluminum and with a fan about 34CFM. No less than 25, or you might as well be blowing on it
