| upgrade? sort-of - t.r.u.e so i got myself one of those thermalright ultra extremes and what can i say, its not what everyone praises to me. it dropped temps by around 5-6 degrees. but i guess i expected more? i'm now from 40-43 to about 36-37. the only thing thats stopping me from being really mad is that i had to take off my rear case fan to put on the heatsink. so in a few days i'll buy some new and fancy fan for the heatsink and return the rear exhaust to its home. maybe that will make a difference? i sure hope so. and the fan attacher things suck i dont know if i did it right but i have the fan on it but it doesn't look or feel right. not worth the 60 or so dollars someone else paid for as a gift to me. i could have just gotten a zalman 9700 and not had to take my motherboard and everything else out of my case.
