Default What is the absolute best air cooler for my AMD 64 754
I have a emachines T6410 with one pcie slot, thats about to be filled with a 7800 gt. So, what do u reccomend for my AMD? I dont care about price, as long as its not like 80 dollars or something like that. Im willing to get almost anything as long as its the best, and as long as it fits my motherboard. I was looking at getting a x90c, but i dont think that is the best choice anymore.

It will cream it. Check the reviews for yourself. It will beat most low end watercooling systems.

Well since it is an emachines two things come to mind:

1. Why do you need an aftermarket cooler for an emachines? It wont oc.
2. Are you sure that the comp's psu will be able to handle a 7800?


Since you can't oc an emachine, and if you can not very far I would suggest another stick of 512 ram.

Because most E-machines will not have options in the BIOS to overclock.

Well an emachines is a prebuilt, and prebuilt's don't oc for ***** because of the mobo, and because they usually give you ***** ram also hence the low price.

im gonna go cry in a corner now...ok maybe not, can anyone reccomend a cheap mobo maybe i could get that will work with everything i have? This is turning out to be way more expensive then i planned already. I can still oc the 7800 gt though..

or could i flash the bios? even though its risky if the power gets cut, i have safety measure i can take for that
