Default thanks guys!!

I just bought the zalman CNPS 9500AT and installed it because you gave it such favorable reviews. I initially resisted aftermarket cooling because with my setup I thought it was an uneeded expense, man was I wrong. I am now slightly overclocked, (2.66ghz, be bumping that up now that I have more temp headroom) quiet as a ninja with all fans on low, and nearly 20 degrees C cooler on idle (16 cooler on load). Untill now I was kinda regretting the antec 900 case decision because of the noise.

PS I transferred funds to my paypal to subscribe and will soon be a VIP. You guys are the best source for all the answers I need to keep tinkering



New rig:
Antec900 case

I guess "Crazy" is one way of saying it......others might say "Troubled", "Demented", "Sick", "Disgusting", "Weird"....oh wait, we want more people to join up, so I'll cut it off there.
