$100 to $200 itll probably go down but i want a cool looking case ya i like the NZXT Trinity.

the case is cheaper on newegg. Also id buy one or 2 120mm fan(s). the 80mm in the back for exhuast isnt that good. what are you ganna get, the one w/ or w/o the clear side panel?

I dont think you will need to buy a HSF for the CPU b/c the stock one is just fine. with the stock im gettting 38C on idle and i kno preator gets <25C and we have the same CPU(4200) and even under load it doesnt get higher than 45C. Also iv read reviews that you can OC to about 2.4-2.5 with the stock HSF.

ok ill skip the new heatsink and fan but should i get the artic silver five to put on the cpu. would i be able to put a 120 mm fan in the back even though it says 80 mm? ill probably get the one with the clear side panel and get some fans with leds in them.

Mr.Suave · 01-14-2006, 12:02 AM

ya you will be able to put the 120m fan on the back.

um as for wether to get artic silver five, i think the thermal pad on the HSF will be fine. just get it when you decide to OC more and need a new HSF.
