This is a pretty good system:

I use this because it's internal, works well, and extremely easy to install:

I use and recommend the Zalman Reserator1 Plus. It is a little bit more than $200 but not much and enables me to run my X2 4400 at 2.6Ghz @ 42C

Yellow is that 42C idle or under load and i assume its overclocked a bit obviously j/w cuz my 3800+ isn't overclocked and i use a arctic cooler freezer 64 pro and mine stays at 32C idle and gets to about 44C under max load I up'd it to 2.2Ghz to try it out but i saw no speed increase and it only went 2C higher on each.

It works as a second monitor... I used my LIS2 (above the LCD) to control my fans, read the temperature, email, etc. It can be customized...
