Athlon cooler

IrishSS · 07-04-2001, 10:35 PM

What is a good Athlon (socket A) cooler? I'm not lookign to spend a whole lot, cause I prolly wont o'clock at all, but I'd like to keep it running as nicely as possible, and in the event I do want to o'clock it, I woudl like to be able to do so fairly well.

And where can I get what you recommend for a good price?

If you're looking not to spead too much I suggest an Alpha. Heck if you're not even going to ever over clock then go with a cooltech...

i just ordered a 1.4 athlon with a global win 38 fan for it... its loud as a mofo but you can switch out the fan for a quiet 80mm fan really easily

i recommend as always the thermoengine, with the stock fan, it cools well even with the little dink.

If your using asus a7a266 board, the powerpccooling cooler will not fit on the board.
