    Chipset cooling

    time now to cool the chipset!

    i was thinking either a Crystal orb or something like that....

    the one limitation i have is it needs to be SHORT as i have a thermalright SP-97 looming over it and its DAMN close.....

    and anyone know of any good ram sinks that i can shove on my 9600 pro's ram thingys that are showing?

    The Tweakmonsters are good RAM sinks mate

    As for the chipset cooler, the Orb might be a tad too high for your application as its about 2.5-3cm in height An alternativbe would be the Vantec Iceberq cooler. Looks rather nice with a blue LED and isn't too tall


    Design...Refine...Perfect

    Well if you're feeling really crafty, then mod the chipset cooler form a blue LED to a green version
    But size wise you should be fine mate Might get away with the orb, will be tight though :0

    In that case you should be fine with the Orb
