CPU and GPU cooling.

[zanii]

I'm wandering if I should get the Cooler Master V8 on my CPU (i7 940 2,93ghz) and the Zelman1000 on my GPU (ATI HD5870)
I don't have much choicefor the GPU cooling since it's not very available in my country, but there's a bigger market on the CPU coolers. Should I purchase them?
And I will be overclocking the CPU but probably not the GPU (then again you never know...)
The spec on my computer is in my signature.

Don't bother with GPU heatsinks, but get a good CPU cooler. The Prolimatecg Megahalems is a good cooler. along withthe MegaShadow.

Also look into the Thermalright TRUE 120

Only get GPU after-market heatsinks if you have a great CPU heatsink.

I'm getting a Venomous X soon, and after that I'll be getting an after-market heatsink for my 9800GT.

We're all sick of hearing about it, not getting much work at scottalot.webs.com?

Haha, I have gotten one last year and I have a customer buying this February.

And why are you sick about hearing about it? I was just giving an example... very rude for the first time you've adressed me.

yeah, I would say dont really bother with the GPU cooler

the CPU on the other hand, I would say get teh Prolimatech Megahalem or the Thermalright Venomous X

The TRUE is slightly worse off than those 2.

Those colers have enough heatpipes to make a jail door, and they pretty heavy. So they will be great for High heat applications (basically OC'ed i7s...)
