I have just upgraded my heatsink - got an SLK800 (bloody big lump of copper) and it seems to be good. CPU temp gone from about 54C under full load before to low 40C now - case temp about 28C.
Now I am looking for a good fan to go with this (salvaged current fan from old PSU so obviously looking for a new one).
I like the idea of the Smart Fan II from Thermaltake, but have also been reading about the new <A HREF="http://www.ystech.com.tw/Tmd/tmd-0.htm" target="_new">Y.S. TECH Tip-Magnetic Driving Fan</A>. Does anyone have any experience of either of these - or an alternative (preferably not too loud - some of the Deltas and the Tornado (about 55 DBa) have great air flow but would drive my girlfriend mad - not a good thing)
