Well my north bridge anyway. Today after finaaly getting my memory to ddr2 800 i found that the little plate thats ontop of my msi k9n`s north bridge couldent handle it.

I put my big silverstone 110cfm monster fan ontop of it and it still wouldent game with out the computer rebooting or stalling.

So i`ve come to the desicion that my computer insides need a new home with better cooling.

I was looking at one of these and was wondering if my choice is good or bad before i put a 190$ investment to find out. Please help.

go figure. i'm having trouble with heat on that thing too. buy an aftermarket heatsink.. or at least replace the stock thermal interface material with some ceramique or something ;)
 
The Jing Ting :)D) JTS Forcetake 6000... 32$

The Thermalright HR-05... 22$ + fan

The Swiftech 159-CU 31.95$

Or the Blue Zalman cooler (with good case airflow, or a 40mm fan bolted to it)...

Will all do extremely well.
