I have one of those Hiper PSU's,pretty damn sweet and near silent..word of warning tho make sure you have enough clearance in you case for the screw in cables,I had a coolermaster wavemaster and it was a tight squeeze, had to bend them down a bit so they would fit..needless to say i dumped the case

also...Razer copperhead :wink: http://www.razerzone.com/

PSU looks fine, and the memory you can't go wrong there. Corsair and Kingston are the most popular for RAM. As for the heatsink, you can get the AMD64 CPU's with a specially designed AMD heatsink. I got the 3500+ with 3 yr gaurantee and AMD Heatsink and I have never had a crash, or overheating problem so far. The previous AMD I had, the 2800+ did however overheat alot and it just had a normal Heatsink.

Yeah agree witgh the lads. Have one of the coperhead mice myself - really can't use anything else after getting it - the biz

Actually, the heatsink I got with my 3700+ has never crashed. So just keep it standard?

The heatsink I have seems to be fine as my CPU has never went above 41c.

Which is nice. :roll:

That is nice but is that a 64 bit processor or are you moving onto a 64 bit processor, if so you need better cooling.

:?

:lol: :x

:oops: :cry: :evil: :roll: :wink: :odlums: :salute:

Actually I think the 64 processors are more efficient and run cooler... Regardless if you get one of the retail CPU kits a heatsink and fan will come with it that will work fine, if maybe a littl loud )depending on the fan etc)

Yeah, the CPU is a 3700+ San Deigo AMD 64. It runs really cool on stock fan'age.

But, I got my gear today and its running sweet!!

Cheers lads. :salute:
