Question about cooling on blackops
Does anyone know what the best heatsink is for the blackops? or am i better going with water cooling? Ive have a tight budget though so i can only use cheap waterblock and a cheap pump and a resevoir (at most £100 in total).
__________________The only problem with water cooling is i have a 1K watt PSU and the cables take up the space in the spare 5.25" bays even with cable ties so the reservoir will need to be outside (possible on top on the case where the PSU is located). I really dont have the choice to go back to the lap try either, no room on my desk because of my monitor. So what do you think will be better?

are you asking about a CPU cooler?
if so then the Megahalems is the best option right now followed closely by the TRUE, the dark knight, and the mugen 2. i am not sure how your money converts to USD, but here you can get a water loop for around $200-225.

yea, the cpu cooler, its just for space. Its cause the F7P ive got jsut now doesnt fit right so i have to use a 120mm fan cable tied to it.

 To the OP. Check my guide (1st link in sig) for CPU cooler suggestions. I also list all the dimensions so it can help you decide based on size as well.

For £100 you can get water cooled with ok parts.
12V OCZ Hydro Pulse Water Pump 500 £30 HEATKILLER® CPU Rev3.0 775 LC Water Block £26 XSPC RS240 Black £29 Now thats £85 from the 1st place I looked, I could most likely get it down more and get hoses and bits and bobs as well.
