nice job, even though the wires are showing, it adds a nice look to your case. Btw, what speed is that Pentium D 805 running at? You only put @667.

But the wires look really nice showing, the UV light brings it out a lot.

hi I got the same motherboard. I am thinking of buying blue orb II. The only question on my mind is that whether I may have any trouble placing that cooler in my case. I understand that the case is Antec LANBOY Mini-tower Aluminum. I am gonna compare the dimensions with my own case. I have Asus TA 581. I hope I can fit it in.

That 805 needs pumping up to 3.8ghz - they fly once they are there... Just use a divider on the memory to get some nice bandwidth...

hi me again! one of my friends told me of a local retail store where I can find arctic cooler 7 pro at the same price of blue orb 2. You know size and weight does matter.I am not sure whether I am ready to sacrifice my empty ram slots for that blue stuff. There is a great deal of difference in terms of performance but I may also think of a ram upgrade (from 1 to 2 gbs) but on one of the sites I came across a test that revealed in case of a ram upgrade overall performance is enhanced solely at a rate of 1.5 %.In a way I am stuck! got any idea about that arctic cooler pro 7?

ok, the only reason ur going to get better cooling is for overclocking, and the only way u can overclock is if u have sturdy ram, i reccommend u get mushkin or ocz ddr2 ram as those 2 brands are good. the acf 7 is 20$ on newegg with free shipping this is where it is but dont get it if ur not overclocking because theres no reason in getting quality coolers unless ur going to overclock...

thanks so there is no harm if I keep using the stock fan. I was a bit fussy about it. this q fan thing then does help with only spending less power. when I get back home from work I sometimes become trendy- looking for new parts and devices for upgrade. By the way I havent had any difficulties with titan quest but most ppl say they have had lock-ups.
