New Cooler for AM2

[ddrum2000]

So I just built a HTPC with a X2 3800+ AM2 65W. I wanted something that would cool better then the stock Aluminum cooler. I bought a Thermaltake Silent Boost RX K8 after reading good reviews but it doesn't fit in my Ultra Microfly microATX case. I was thinking mabye the Thermaltake Silent 939 K8. Do you have any other suggestions, thanks.

I just went watercooled - best thing I ever did! Alll the parts (tank, pump, radiator, block) are sited seperately so can be quite usefull for squeezing into a few small spaces. The block is tiny compared to a fan, and I got the Thermaltake CL-W0005 Big Water SE so the tank fits into a 5" drive bay. The radiator can be mounted outside the case.

Worth considering????

i agree it is worth considering. How much do you pay for it? I dont really want to spend a lot more money after just buying all new components. Thanks

There are a few full kits including everything you need for under £60 - well worth it in my opinion!
