If your mobo will support it I really like the Alpha 8045 bit it requires the mobo have the mounting holes in it. If not that then the Thermoltake SLK800 would be a good choice. Both use an 80mm fan which will be quieter than a 60mm fan moving equal amounts of air.
the volcano 9 is a good fan as is the top of the line swiftech you can look around for it... basically a massive copper cooler... you will have to buy and attach a fan to it.. I recommend the fan that comes with the volcano 9... the smartfan2
what temp readings should i get with the slk800 / ys-tech 80mm silent fan,im currently getting 50c for the cpu and 35 for the mb.
are these about right for my set up?

seems a tad high... I don't get that much oc'd to the max..
yes I have a slower cpu BUT when I oc my fsb is higher... you have a higher clock multiplier and also a smaller die size/process (o.13 micron v/s 0.18 micron)
what kind of thermal paste did you utilize?
also try a smartfan 2 on top of the cooler instead of a silent fan...
Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
