I am going to upgrade my CPU from a 1400 to a 3200+ with the 400 MHz f.s.b. I have an Asus A7N8X deluxe mobo. Which heatsink/fan should I use for this combo? I am not so concerned with noise but I don't really want to wake up my neighbors! I will be doing some overclocking too. Also, which cases do you like????

Thanks for your help!

If you want to overclock, then 3200+ is not the way to go. Buy the new AMD Athlon Mobile series, they overclock much better. The recommended heatsink would be Thermalright SP97 with a 92mm fan of your choice.
