hi, i just bought a i7 920, motherboard and 6gb of ram off kijiji for $350 :WIN!:
it had the stock cooler which just wouldnt do
im looking at possible cooling soluitions:
CoolIT ECO A.L.C. water cooler (66 dollars) only this i really would want to spend that much on

if theres a fan or heatsink u think i should use, take a look on directcanada.com and see if its there, as thats where im ordering from because they the cheapest, because i live in ontario and they r in bc, theres no PST, and free shipping on orders over 300
i guess because its for a heatsink/rad, the "Scythe Slip Stream Kaze Jyuni" would be the worst, even though it has up to 110 cfm, and smallest dead zone, it has a low static pressure and wont blow alot of air through the heatsink/rad
case will be the compucase blitz unless the lian k58 with a window comes back in stock
it had the stock cooler which just wouldnt do
