Hey guys,
I've currently got a Celeron 420 proc with the stock cooling, Idle its around 28-29C, and on load +-35C.
Ok, not too bad temps..... BUT... i'm going to overclock my Celeron, to the limit of my MoBo(AsRock 1333-D667)
yes, my mobo is bad, but i'll hope i'll get atleast +-2.6Ghz out of it.

(i have PC5300 mem, wich runs in dualchannel)
So, wich cooler would i choose?

I have been thinking about a Freezer 7 Pro, because it needs to be cheap, or a second hand (very cheap,$8) stockcooler from a QX6700, wich both i'll sure get better temps from.
Any other suggestions??
Help appreciated.

And erhm, sorry for my bad english

Greetz,

I'd have to recommend the GeminII, which is pretty cheap around here.
any fan with 70-80CFM output will be good. get some silent ones preferrably (or cheap ones).
(if you can find 'em, the Thunderblades look awesome, and are pretty cheap)

Ok, thanks.
Yeah, i saw saw the geminII in some various benchmarks with an E6600, and it scored pretty well indeed.
(in cooling and silence)
