Hi Im buying a p4 2.4c processor that i plan on OC'ing and was wondering what i should be thinking about in terms of cooling the cpu

is the heatsink that comes retail adequate or should i upgrade? and what about a cpu fan? or should i just get another case fan (i have 2)?

im not too experienced with cooling, was wondering if you people could give me some advice specifc to cooling the 2.4c...

thanks

a question,
when people say get a new "hsf", do you mean a fan and a heatsink (both) or just a cpu fan or just a heatsink?

please clarify im new to these terms
appreciated
