Hey guys
I'm running a E8400, stock speeds and stock cooling, i play on a 24" and have a 4870X2.. so i think OC'ing it a little would help me out a bit, I'd really like to go to 3.6.. or even 3.4 if that is asking too much
I've never used a CPU cooler.. so would anyone be able to recommend me a good CPU cooler that doesn't require a backplate, as i reallllly don't want to pull the motherboard out and place one on
If you could name more than one that would be great, cause i live in australia and we do not have as much stuff as you
Australia doesn't sell thermalright ultras or tuniq towers.. best CPU cooler we have is the big typhoon or a zalman 97
thanks anyway
 
the Zalman has always been a good cooler, just not as good at the TRUE but if your only looking for a reasonable overclock that should be fine
 
My vote for a cheap good cooler is the Sunbeam CCF, its not as good as the True but its cheaper and almost the same temps. But really, you should pull out the motherboard to install any cooler. I'm not sure if you could just ship a cooler in or not. :( Also i've heard that e8400 do 4ghz easy so i think you'll be good! :D
 
Lol, would be hard to find someone who ships to australia but yeh i guess i should take the mobo out and do it all properly
thanks guys
