Cheers for checking out the thread, Zak.
Yep thats the case and good to know I was on the right track thinking about using the PSU. Have one of the 700W FSP jobbies from Scan in there at the moment, 120mm fan on that makes some serious racket, so hopefully also shifts some serious air.
If your saying that Akaska at £13 is cooling Quadie extremes @ stock then shouldnt break much of a sweat on the E4500 if I'm sensible about it
(at 2.2ghz, even an increase to 2.5ghz would be welcome atm), might be worth a punt for £13 and seeing how far I get while continuing research into the more expensive stuff. Am very tempted after some more googling by the XP-120 though, only concern left with that is overhang off the top of the mobo which will measure up when I get a chance later.
Thanks again to all.
