Ye ThermalRight XP-90 or 120 and then get a fan under 25 db, its enough.
2 Papst 80mm fans(23db) to get some air in, and 1 or 2 in the back.
This should keep your OC'ed cpu under 50 degrees.

would like to see come confirmation that it can be mounted on a msi neo board thou first, well all can fit with the rigth amount of violence 8) however it may not be so healthy for the motherboard and cpu to add smth that aint suppose to fit... could always buy it and test, its not so expensive and a 120mm fan i have already at my barton..

in this thread someone says they have xp-120 on msi neo

You have to point the HS Pipes at the DDR sticks.

But a ThermalRight XP-90 is fine tbh...

yea, but then i need to buy a new fan 8) not expensive but anyway, but hmm, dont the ddr's go underneath, or just place them in 3&4, thoose looks clear if its a xp-120 on the pics ?

and the pipes, are they hard ? if not maybe possible to bend them smoothly so it dont bump in on the parts ? if the pipes are what i think its oilfilled pipes, and should be pretty soft right ?

Damn, looks like a ThermalRight XP-90 for my next rig. Just need some nice Nforce4 boards to start shipping now.

Mmmm... ram sticks on carpet. Always a winning combination. Heatsink looks nice though - if only I had a machine worthy of that much cooling.

hehe, true... didnt notice that untill you said it 8)

thats xp120 in pic , theheat pipes are rigid not bendable (there metal) and yes they have liquid in them,you put ram in first before heatsink , although will work fine in 3+4

everything must be bendable with the correct tools thou and a small amount of anger 8) as they are bended in the first place, you have to be able to bend them afterwards aswell. the Q is how hard they are...

 

[Xeanor]

getting a zalman 7700-AlCu baby for my P4 soon

XP-120 was way too expensive tbh (and same temps really) and i'd have to bend some capacitors too

this one: http://www.zalmanusa.com/usa/product/view.asp?idx=146&code=

barely fits in my case

bump**
Yea i got my a64 now..all nice and stable 260x9 on my 3000+ winchester cpu
The asus A8V wont go higher than 260 HTT tho...think I rma it this week
No I didnt buy the xp -90 or 120..the coolermaster hyper6 is what i got.

It keeps my cpu 36 idle and 43 load- very nice

Good 3d mark score joor, my athlon 3500 winchester at 2520mhz on stock cooling 37c-41c idle at the moment, might get hyper 6 too.My best 3d mark 2001 score is 25647 at the moment with a 6800GT at 410/1117.How big is that hyper 6 anyway?

You have cool and quiet enabled?

Nope, but pc isn't that noisy and got a silencer on the GT aswell as 4 fans in case.(coolermaster praetorian)

temps are lower now..after AS5 kicks in..and i change vcore to 1.45.

 

[Sycho]

How loud is it though?Oo was thinking of going for the thermaltake xp-90 with a zalman fan, want to get a higher overclock, around 2.7/2.8ghz mark, any ideas? i am using MSI Neo 2 Platinum board too which has problems with the xp-120, do not really want to bend a capicator heh.

 

[Joor]

Max i can go atm..A8V dont like my ram

 

[Sycho]

I am on a 3500 winchester, if i get the xp-90 reckon i can hit 2.7-2.8 stable? i am on 250fsb atm at x10, 1.5v core around 37-41 idle usually using crucial ballistix 4000 ram too.I haven't tried 2500mhz on stock cooling around 1.45/1.475 vcore though perhaps i should.Some people been getting 2700mhz on 1.45 so could work.Give ocz ram though xD

Lol that is one big mofo heatsink

hmmm thats quite a poor super pi time for an a64 :/ my xp2500mobile
(running 235x 11 @ 1.9 volts in bios temps 38 idle 48 load) old ass chip gets 38 secs on 1mb superpi, still looking to upgrade soon but proberly going to wait for nforce4 boards to be shipping more easily. Still yeah some a64 boards very picky on ram :/ does suck but just one of those things most of them seem to be loving tccd chips Crucial Balistix not worth buying the 3700 since the 3200 has same chips \o/

some scary super pi times dothans are going to be sick imo a 1.6ghz laptop running 1mb super pi unclocked or tweaked at 48 secs , not bad tbh

 

[pikeh]

Just bought a athlon 3500+ winchester, with a gigabyte K8NSNXP-939 board, but the board dosent like my memory at all, so i am gonna send it back (GeiL Dual Channel DDR ((2x512))) Just trying to find some that is compatible. Having said that, running in single channel (lots of bluescreens in dual channel) i can run daoc perfectly, system is very nice, just the bloody mem prob that lots have with this mobo.

Yep not yber ram timing atm..3-4-4-10 ..got new ocz ram today..can go 275@ 2.5-3-3-10...

I'm waiting to buy an A64 + Nforce4 mobo + 6800GT(PCI-E)... just as soon as the latter two are in good stock. Hopefully before WoW! I was looking at fans for the A64... I cba overclocking anymore so I wanted something silent and efficient. But I read if you don't use the stock fan + thermal pad, the warranty is void for the A64? oO Has anyone used the stock fan and is it silent enough to keep? Else I might buy a ThermalRight!

Same with all cpus dont use stock cooler and you void warrenty.... is a joke tbh as how the hell can they tell if you are or are not, they cannot, same with if you overclock , they cant tell it is untraceable, and stock a64 cooler not sure on noise but it is actually reasonably good at cooling

 

[mightybunny]

stock coolers are superb dont worry about noise.
they use cool and quiet anyway
