I'm still tweaking the in's and out's of the rig I want, and decided to take a look at the CPU cooler i'd chosen.
I picked the Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro simply on reputation, but realised that i'm going for a nice look to my rig aswell as power, then I noticed this http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showp... AL CPU Cooler (Socket 754/939/940/AM2/LGA775) with it's nice blue LEDs (I'm getting the Antec 1200 loaded with blue LEDs, and the shape of the cooler just appeals to me.)
My mobo will be the Asus P5Q Pro Intel P45 (Socket 775), and I just wondered if there's anything I should know about this cooler? I've not heard much about Asus coolers (I'd take the Zalman, but there's not one with blue LEDs)
Edit. Oh yeah, i'll be getting the Q6600, and i'm considering overclocking it to 3ghz (I've never overclocked before, but from OC it's guaranteed to overclock to 3ghz, and general opinion is that it increases gaming speeds dramatically)
