Choosing what to choose

Actually, temps will shoot up after shutdown, since if the CPU is running at 60C before shutdown, it may shoot up to 80C afterwards, since before the heat was being dissipated by the heatsink, but after shutdown, the HSF is not running, so the CPU stays much hotter for a longer time. Just because you cut the power to the CPU doesn't mean that the heat from the chip stops dissipating instantly.

No but the fan should still keep spinning for a very slight amount of time after shutdown, plus the heatsink itself should absorb alot of the heat shouldn't it? Enough anyway that it should be fine...shouldn't it?? Don't you have an arctic freezer 7? is that working well?

Unless the heatsink had heatpipes, it wouldn't really help. And as far as I've seen, the fans immediately spin down after the PC turns off. But the usefulness of such a device would also depend on how hot your CPU is running in the first place. My QX9650 runs at around 54C or so under full load, which isn't much anyways and at idle, it sits at under 30. Regardless, this is a debatable topic, but having that device wouldn't hurt IMO, especially after looking at how cheap it is (relative to the OP's budget).

As far as I can see IOSS a reletavly very small company is the only one who produce this product.
Wierd I can't find anything else like that anywhere!
have you guys found anything like that, which is the same device and that i can compare it with.
If not thats ok I can tell you I am getting it seems like a good little cheap gadget this does.

Oh one thing I forgot.
I am looking at CPU & VGA Cooling systems at the momment after that I am done.
Just hoping if you can direct me to the right direction! (Remmember I am not using Liquid Cooling not after what happened)

Wingy

LOL

couldn't you just attach a battery between the fan input and cooler or something??? Bah i suppose i would rather pay a couple bucks for an "after cooler". What cpu cooler are you going to use again?



@rage: Whats your cpu clocked at, 3.0ghz?

Well not sure yet. I am comparing many different brands and designs at the moment. will probably put something up in the forums tomorrow around 18:00GMT.
Their are so many to choose from its ridiculous LOL!
will probably post the VGA Cooling tomorrow. I will save them most important Cooling to last (CPU).

But again any which you might recommend please do

Yep. Didn't bother trying to OC it, since it's already so ridiculously fast at that frequency.

@Wing-01, I recommend the Thermalright 120-Ultra Extreme CPU cooler.

I like this one:

I think it looks better than that one, i guess that it's probably not as good.

Ok guys just to update you, I haven’t done much today for the build. Work killed me today!
Anyway I did research in all of them. When I say research I mean very Basic research but you know where I am at.

Below is the original list of CPU Cooling Systems Manufacturers I looked at.
As you will see I have a narrowed version of different manufacturers I will chose from.
From that list I will chose the dady LOL

Akasa
Arctic Cooling
Asetek
Asus
Coolermaster
Dynatron
Gigabyte
Intel
Noctua
NorthQ
Scythe
Silverstone Tech
Supermicro
Thermalright
Xigmatek
Zalman
Zerothem

Chosen List:
Artic Cooling
Noctua
Scythe
XIGMATEK
Zalman
Thermalright
ASUS

Arctic Cooling, Noctua, Scythe, Zalman, XIGMATEK, Thermaltake, ZeroTHERM and Thermalright would be the top picks IMO. The current CPU cooler king IMO is the ZeroTHERM Nirvana NV120.
If you're thinking of GPU cooling, better not mess with it since most manufacturers do not offer warranty if you change the stock heatsink.

So hang on are you saying I shoudnt buy a GPU Cooling system. or are you saying to really pick the right one ?

really?
O.o
Is there anyway to replace the 120mm fan, it looks loud...?



No you should buy a manufacture's coolling solution as to not void the warrenty.
Like saphire's toxic 3870 gddr4. Or that one brand with "chill " in its name. I forgot what it was called. Anyway the 4870x2 hasnt even come out yet soo....though im sure there will be some pretty insane cooling solutions as thye are supposedly running vey hot.

Yeah for the VGA Cooling I will wait.
Found that out what you just told me very fast when I was researchig it.
Thats why I went into GPU Cooling Research.

But If I cannot buy a different cooling solution for the GPU are you saying I need to buy the GPU Cooling Solution from the same company who makes the GPU?

Well if you cant buy one, well i guess you have no choice than to buy from the retailers...Well, assuming that you buy the 4870x2 at either $450 or $500 USD, you won't want to have that wasted by voiding your warrenty and having it die somehow...so its better to use the manufacture's cooling solution. Many manufacture's offer good cooling solutions. Although i seriously think that the 4870x2 is going to have MAJOR heat issues...

Ok so just to recheck see if I understand.
I will buy Intel Processor so I will buy Intel cooling solution for that Processor.
the same goes with graphic cards and so on right?

Their might be some danger but if it needs to be cooled it will be cooled

Better to be frosty LOL

------------
Looking at the Cooling from Intel. They already come with their Heat sinks and fans the only think I do not like is that I cannot run the fan after shut down which is the main thing I want to do but I will stick with the one Intel Provides for their Processors.

For the VGA well more research and will wait until the Graphic’s Card comes out see what solutions I can find for that.

Right Gentlemen Here is the System Spec! HoAh!

Turbo Cool 1200. 1200Watt ATX

Please comment if their is something wrong or anything please

That looks like a fantastic PC. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

Thank you guys for all your help I will let you know everything as it developes.

Again thank you so much for all your help you have been great. I coudn't of asked for better people like your selfs to help me.

Thank you,
Nico

I just got word on the cooling system that its gonna have(i cannot tell you though)...and you had better make sure there is ALOT like ALOT of room in your case, also might wanna rethink liquid cooling...

amazing mouse but at 4000dpi, it tends to twitch on the screen. But its not the mouse, if i concentrate on holding it still, it stays still. Just warning you that it takes a smooth hand to use it.

What are you going to have your cpu's fsb? It should match your ram.

what is FSB?
you mean 4GB i am buying two of them
