nice nice.. look into the Cooler Master V8 - its a pretty serious cooler for a good price and since u've got the full tower it'll fit like a dream (its pretty big)
id like to be there when ur cpu implodes, heatsink with 3.5 OC?!
dont u mean phase change!?
whoever is building this for you, and tells u they can run 3.5 OC and still use active cooling, take them outside and beat them with a stick then tell them " NO!

not sure about O.C. with the stock fan/heatsink but ive seen 4.0+ with other heatsinks - its not magic

i have seen 4.9 with a shitty heatsink.
its possible.
im not going to over do it. im fine how it is now, but i think the max im going with the stock heatsink is 2.9

Not a bad GPU, but I would have recommended getting a GTX 260 which only costs like $40 more. The 9800 GT's are out dated and cant even compare in performance.
For OC'ing you can get a good fan/sink for like $30 and push it to 3.0-3.2ghz with ease. Arctic Cooling makes some sick stuff.
