MxRobbo Posted June 22, 2002 Share Posted June 22, 2002 currently i'm startin to oc my comp, ive only gone to 1335mhz from 1200mhz, my cpu is running at 38c and my case at 29c idle after the 15 minute mark, but i plan to go higher in the near future. Currently i'm using a Dragon Orb 3 to cool my cpu, but i'm wondering if i should go with a new one such as a volcano 7 plus, i'm wondering if anyone here uses ducts to remove the heat directly from the cpu, theres no real point in me doing this rite now because my dragon orb fan just spits the air in all directions it seems away from it and i cant really tell where its taking air in, but i'm thinking if i duct with a volcano 7 or similar hsf and ducting would that help the temperatures stay in the 30's when i oc more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

username Posted June 22, 2002 Share Posted June 22, 2002 the best heatsink today is the thermalright AX-7 with a 80mm fan, great for overclocking (but are you really getting any extra performance? is it worth it given the coast of a better heatsink) Just some thoughts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MxRobbo Posted June 22, 2002 Author Share Posted June 22, 2002 rite now i think its worth the cost, cause next month or so when i have some money i'm gona be getting a athlon xp 2200 or whatevers new and i'd like it to stay cool, so that makes this cpu one to mess around with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
