I love the Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme. I've had it since release and used it on every mobo I've tried. If you want an edge using it, try one fan in push and one fan in pull.

Sounds great. Just don't forget to get a decent 120mm fan. The ultra 120 extreme is just the heat sink.

Will do, cheers for the advice guys.

Got plenty of time to read up

Sux don't it

I can't wait that long to upgrade. So i'm upgrading to something I will have to upgrade in a year. At least my brother will be happy he gets everything in my sig apart from the graphics card and monitor (although I will give him the 4850 when I upgrade that)

I should have a BFG GTX260 coming tomorrow

That way at least me mate will get an upgrade from his 7600 and i'll have something that can hustle with Farcry 2

Free t-shirt time!
