    right im looking at the bios cystem health

    cpu core temp started out at 77 droped to 66 now cpu surface temp looks like holding at 47 . kinda want to bring them both down .. maby 50% or so

    basicly i need to find a good cpu cooler to put into it . ( this one is extreemly silent

    i dont care mutch for the noise but i do want the preformance anyone wana reccomend one ? and where to buy it ?

    almost forgot its a amd xp 2100 and i will be overclocking it

    That temp is too high did you apply some thermal paste or something before you installed it? and i'd recommend a globalwin cooler like this 1:

    They might have it on komplett i dunno
    It is pretty noisy but thats a sacrifice youll make for such a fan
    Btw i wouldn't ecen think about overclocking that until you get a good hsf and thermal paste

    I got this one in maplin for 80 yoyo's :http://www.coolermaster.com.hk/en/products/cooler/hhc-001.html

    Notice on the website they dont give you a noise level,there's a good reason for that its about 40 dB(A) it's verry verry loud, i replaced the fan with an antec 80 mm tri-colour blue LED fan using an akasa 60-80 mm fan converter,my temp with an AMD 2000+ xp overclocked to 1.75 is bout 30-33 idle.whitch is excellent considering the antec fan is only 27 dB.

    This might suite you better it's a low noise version of the above 1 :http://www.coolermaster.com.hk/en/products/cooler/hhc-l61.html

    i havent seen this 1 for sale in dublin tho.
