Just a hardware enthusiast, I guess. And, since we need three PC's at home, each one gets a little attention. Makes for easy LAN parties.

willyman69Thanks! Did you use the 3-inch cut?
Yes, the one I used was a 3 inch cut.

And, once you have a quad and 8800GTX SLI, it is kind of hard to step too far back, even just for LAN parties. :-)

Thanks again, guys. Yep, love the Stackers. Enough room to do any cooling solution you like.

The memory cooler works quite well for $18.95. I run 2.35V Dimm and it stays nice and cool. It also helps the RAM run 4-3-3-6, 2T at 1000 MHz for 24x7 duty. For some benching, I run it at 2.45V, 4-3-3-6, 2T at 1066.

Nice, I just wondered, I have a pair of Domminator sticks, and the heatsinks are quiet tall, I'm worried if the cooler won't fit because of the tall heatsinks? :/

Very nice rig.

I myself am looking for the OCZ XTC Cooler to go with my Buffalo Firestix.
Problem is, is that its hard to find.

Where were you able to get that one from?

Where did you find this adapter? Looks like it is medal and not plastic, thus a better mount.

Thanks
