Well if they're not for sale in Egypt I can get them fairly cheap so getting one to you would cost it's normal price. Pays to shop around though ( google Alpenfóhn Heidi)

It does come with ram heat sinks ( a lot of them actually 14 I think) and as bo$$ said as long as you attach a fan you should be golden in terms of cooling : ]

it's not quite as big as a CPU cooler but could probably be used for one : ]

rotated the cpu cooler since then so airflow is vertical in my case.

That will give u alot of overclocking headroom. :cool:

Is that a 5670?
And some VGA-RAM Heatsinks.
That is some serious cooling :rockout:

there u go....
Just an overview of my cheap rig and what am I doing.
Sorry for the crappy quality, though:shadedshu

Your rig's really not that bad. Dont let some of our system specs put you down. Yours should run most games just fine.

Non graphics card related tip tho, get 4GB of ram in 2x2GB sticks.

Don't worry
But I will need water cooling, right?
How do i get a VGA block?
Or can I use an aftermarket vga air cooler?
I have experience in soldering (my uncle taught me alot)
Anyways, I will keep u posted and thanks u for ur help

the air cooler that was posted should do it

alright ,thanks for keeping me posted

Alright man, thanks.
Anyways, When I get my monthly allowance i will keep building up on it and I'll build a whole new rig!
But for now it's ok.
It runs games beautifully. :eek:

Not bad at all for my 19" inch :pimp:

I'll try to upgrade my ram thanks!

Edit: Wait a minute!
My old P4 3.2Ghz rig has a motherboard with 4 ddr2 slots while mine has 2 only?
Anyways should i switch boards and expand my ram to 5G's?
Or will it be limited?
And there is a beautiful Foxconn high-end cpu cooler on it too

(with 3 copper heat-pipes i think)
Anyways it's a G31-based-motherboard.

So should I Change them :confused:

?

budget motherboards always limit themselves to two memory slots, to save on costs.

just because a board has more ram slots doesnt mean its superior.

ram wont be limited, but unless you have matching sticks you will be losing speed (due to dropping to single channel)

Two? I never heard of that :confused:

IDK.....
Anyways thanks for ur help but u need to do more research about this particular board

I can give u the model no or something.
And it's dual channel.
But the problem is that the g31 sux cuz it always overheats for nothing and it's not good in overclocking.
By Looking at my rig I don't need more than 3GB RAM.
Everything runs fine(except for the damned 5570) :banghead:

Just out of curiosity why would it be a risk?

I've never had a problem with a processor as far as I'm aware.

Cept one DOA 955 but that was second hand and shipped from the states.

By the way, you may not be used to forums but the edit button is easy to use, just after you make a post if you feel you need to say more, go back to that post and hit the edit button

Just be concious that the feature is there and you quickly get into the habit ^_^

By the by, I think Alpenfóhn heidi would fit your card , this is it on a 5670 so perhaps a 5570 would work too XD

look at the charts first

Why are you using AtiTool? (old & obsolete)
it's not working well with the new 5xxx series cards

You should use furmark to test for artefacts when you overclock you graphic card

Also some 3dmarks06 or vantage & couples of games to see how good or bad it works
