anyone recommend a nice cheap HSF for my new conroe e6300? Must be fairly quiet and a bit of a bargain if you know what i mean ;P

would Arctic Cooling Alpine 7 CPU Cooler be suitable if i'm not planning on overclocking much? if i overclock an e6300 it would be to the 2ghz mark max...

That will do the trick mate

cheers mate. Don't think it's worth upgrading to the freezer pro 7 if i'm only wanting such little gains? Also does anyone know if the alpine is quiet?

cheers again rob43

If you've got the cash,i would get the pro,even though you say you only wan't to clock to 2Ghz,the pro would allow you to go a bit further & keep things a bit cooler

Worthwhile in the long run

think ill stick to the basic model. Really need to keep to a budget and although i agree with you on the freezer, i can't justify it's use to the full. Besides-i can always splash out twenty quid on a fan in the future!
