On 4.4GHz mine was touching 98 degree cel during prime 95 stress testing.

I say get a good cooler first though you can test it. Don't use Asus automatic overclocking utility. It raises the Vcore and BCLK (which is not much flexible in SB processors, leave it at 100 only) more than needed for that particular freq rise.

I like my thermalright TRUE but you should go for Venemous X or Noctua one.

Have you connected the front audio to the HD header. It's the sh!te :C_rabbit:

Megahalems is the top tier.

Megahalems is really huge, rams must be low profile.

You sure? Mine sounds just great, better than my older ALC1200 on the P5Q, but I've never used a soundcard before.

Low noise and good CFM? Get the CM LED R4s, if sound does not bother you that much, get the Xtraflow.

I don't know if this qualifies for purchase but just won myself a free copy of Dirt 3 in this contest, the pc version: Dirt 3 Contest Winners Announced | GamersMint

Thanks to Moon_raven for the news, couldn't do it without the news, cheers.

I hope my ears got used to Xonar DX..
U should try a decent sound card once... Then u'll feel how crappy onboards are..

I'll check the R4s

Look no further than CM R4, if you are not allergic to LEDs.

Take the iron, burn away the connectors of the LEDs, and voila, non LED high CFM fan, if the LEDs bother you that is.
