arrow Heatsink question

i am going to be getting a new P4 machine in the coming month and i want a good heatsink for it. i am looking for a good copper heatsink with a 80mm fan that is replacable with a bigger and better one. i'm going to be getting a new 3.0 Prescott chip. and i will be using a Asus P4C800-E DELUXE motherboard.


thanx for any suggestions.

I went shopping a few days ago to replace my AMD system with Intel.

I got the 2.4C, Thermalright SP-94 (gonna be using a Thermaltake SmartFanII on it) and the P4C800-E Deluxe.

you made a very good choice, that is the BEST heatsink out right now for Intel solutions, wish I had a 92MM Tornado though

its ok I'll live.

i use a vantec fan controller for all my tornado fans. so its not bad unless i want to turn them on high. which i really don't do that often cuz of how loud they are.
