Need advice for computer hardware!

Case 1: You plan to overclock.
Then you would need an aftermarket HSF and a TIM like MX-4 or Shin-Etsu

Case 2:You do not overclock
Then you can skip the TIM.Or you can get it no harm but the HSF comes pre-applied with TIM then you will have to clean it and reapply,it won't make much of a difference may be 1-2C.


In Both cases you should get a GPU with a better HSF like the MSI Twin Frozr or the Asus Direct CUII.I would not recommend the stock NVIDIA cooler.

And sidewinder is a good keyboard I really Like it :good:
 
i picked out a different case which seems to have nice cooling and ventilation based on reviews and the video tour. I also might get a CPU cooler. For the GPU though - the ASUS 2x fan one or the EVGA single fan? EVGA has extremely high ratings and seems to be a very good brand - thats the one i'm currently going with, but ASUS is also good.
