Athlon XP Heatsink

Ok so im going to build my first pc soon, and I wanted toknow whether or not my AXP 1800 would still run at a decent temperature if I used the Heatsink that came with it (and no Arctic Silver II or anything, just the wax on the heatsink), or if i should consider another Heatsink and ARctic Silver II or something else......

If you're not planning on overclocking and don't care that won't get stellar although adequate preformance, the stock HSF will work perfectly for you.

Have you ever tried cooking an egg on your HSF? Tasty.

Thanks for the help, I seriously doubt I'll overclock(since this is the first time I've built). I'm getting an Antec SX840 case with 400 Watt powersupply and 2 fans, most likely going to get an Nforce 415-D when it comes out (sound heh).I have a Geforce2 Ultra, so I wont need the built-in Geforce 2 MX (which the 415 won't have), and im getting 2 256MB sticks of Crucial or Corsair DDR(which is the better brand?), seem like a decent setup? (with the Athlon XP 1800 I mentioned of course)

This is kind of off topic, but you guys are talking about air-flow, so maybe u guys can give me some advice. I have a P4-1.6, I only have 1 fan (the power supply fan), now I am considering to add one more fan. Should I add 1 at the front, or at the back? Thanks

i don't know you might look at swiftech's mcx462 heatsink. that's probably the only that will keep a cpu cool. cause i mean the heatsink that amd themselves support and package with the cpu will not work with it.
