Hey again guys!
I am still planning my rig, and it has come to the final stages where I choose the case and the cooler. Again I have come to seek your prudency! (Please note tha aim of this system is to overclock the E6600 to about 3.2Ghz WITHOUT upping the Vcore more that 0.0625V) Everywhere I seem to go on the internet, for overclocking, people seem to LOVE the Thermaltake Big Typhoon (found here): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16835106061 It is big, heavy, and looks (in my opinion) not very good. But supposedly it does the job very well, and is quiet. Then comes my favourite, the ZALMAN CNPS9500 LED. It looks cool, has lights and what not. It can be found here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16835118223 Considering that I dont want to overclock above 3.2Ghz (and not raise the vcore too much), which is the better cooler? Will the Zalman do fine? Also, another issue. The MOBO that Ive chosen has a backplate (called 'crazy cool') attatched to the back of the MOBO to dissipate heat. Since both these HSF's need a bracket at the back, this thing will have to be removed. Any ideas how? MOBO here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813128323 I am planning to choose this case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811119108 Any intelligent guesses if the coolers (especially the typhoon) will fit in this case? Thanks a lot. Another quick question: by upping the vcore 0.0625V, will my CPU just DIE in 6 months?
