Hi all,

I put in a new setup into my tt lanbox lite, and I am in need of some better cooling. I want to hit 3.0ghz with my new(old) cpu.

i have a 9850BE, that has been lapped (very good job), and the stock HSF. I have about 100mm of space above the processor, so no huge tower coolers fit. i heard that the scythe mini ninja can, but it needed the top of the heatpipes cut off.

what should I get?

rep to people who can find me some links to good deals, or just for good advice.

forgot to add, there are 2x 60mm antec stealth fans right behind the cpu area.

Noo..... that would destroy the performance of heatsink.

If I recall correctly, the PSU sit directly over the CPU? Being the case, make sure to get a PSU with a 120/140mm fan. Then get a downdraft heatsink.

I think that the Xigmatek HDT-D1284 is your best bet.

Here is the cooler you could use. Did a pretty good job but will need lapped to ensure best thermal transfer


This is the same heatsink above flipped upside down to illustrate how unfinished the base is. Definitely needs lapped



These will also fit but I don't think I need to tell you how bad they suck.


Stick with the Genini. You can even use 2x 92mm fans instead of 1x 120

here is the Gemini for $19.99 at the Cooler Master store

Oops... sorry, I'm struggling to take anything in today.

Something like the Silverstone NT06-Lite should do, it's quite pricy, though. :\

The only problem I see with that is where would you mount the rad? This is assuming you don't want to hack the case up.
