As the title suggests really. I'm running a 939 X2 4400 at stock speed. I'm not really interested in overclocking as the processor is plenty fast enough as it is
I tried watercooling before (that went horribly wrong, just ask my 7800gtx). Before I had the 4400 I was using a 2700 XP with the Alpha PAL8045. That was an awesome little heatsink (I say little!).
I've seen on the boards that the Arctic Cooling Freezer 64 Pro is getting a lot of praise. Is it the best value one out there at the moment?
Just for reference, I'm using the stock cooler at the moment, so the CPU is running at an unacceptable 42 idle and 48 under load. Well I find it unacceptable anyway. I'd like to reduce that significantly is possible! Budget is healthy, I can afford to stretch to £40 for heatsink and fan if it really is worth it.
Many thanks for looking, and i look forward to seeing the suggestions all!
