Ok i am running my E6580 on a stock Heatsink/Cooler i overclocked the CPU to 3.2Ghz, but of course after 1 minute of Prime it hits 80C:(

So here it is i need a new CPU Cooler :)

I was thinking of the TRUE with either 1x 120mm fan at Push or pull or even 2 x 120mm fan at push and pull to get my overclocking higher.

but of course the TRUE aint even in stock and what does "No ETA" mean?

I been thinking about fans with Blue LEDs cos i am into the "Tacky look"

here are my Choices

Akasa AK-274CB-4BLS 120mm Blue LED Fan


Max Speed 1200 RPM

Akasa AK174CB-4BLB 120mm Blue LED Fan

Max Speed 1600 RPM

and maybe link them up to a fan controler?

I have never used one before and would like one which is easy to set up and would look good with my Silver Armour Plus tower :)

Thanks in Advance
 
I know the feeling :D

My E6750 was under 70 at load (orthos) with the stock intel cooler. I have just got an Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 to replace my intel cooler, not sure what difference it made as I never used the stock cooler on my E8500 but it was only 17 squid. My temps have just dropped somewhat having made a propper effort with the thermal paste, less is more. Load temps are 60-65 where as they were over 80 before.

Its ok, I game with headsets on as long as they aint as loud as the turbo fans the eXtreme air cool system :P

can anybody tell me that ETA means?
