Truthfully This is a ver wimpy setup
Your probably better of getting some good air cooling
especially cause your overclocking
OR bump up hom mutch $$$ your gonna spend

So you think it's better for me to buy an air cooler...

I'll use this watercooler in a STOCK A64 3500+.

And sorry, i did'n understand the meaning of "wimpy" could you explain it better ?

He means that it is complete crap. Dont bother getting a cheap watercooler, It will cause you more problems that it is worth. Only get a water cooler if A) You are prepared to pay a bit of money and B) You are willing to put in the effort to install it properly. Otherwise stick with air cooling.

Just get a giant copper zalman air cooler and call it good :)
I'm really tired right now so the exact model number is escaping me, somethin around 7700 I think.
