just ordered one of these cpu`s,whats the best fans out there for it?
 
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.
 
Yep, the Volcano 9 is 80mm and moves air at 75.7 CFM at 4800 rpm with only 48 dB at 4800 rpm which is full speed.
 
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 :)
 
Volcano 9; awsome fan; does a good job cooling stuff :)
 
i use HHC-001 wich is a full coper HS with heat pipes.. i use this on my 2400+ and my temps are 33C. enjoy
 
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?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
