Yay a A64 4000+ SD core

[Seedler]

Sold my 3200+venice and bought a 4000+ San Diego.

1MB L2 cache and 2.4ghz stock.

Should see some nice OC results once I get a Big Typhoon.

Happy yappy lala dodo lee wee!

No more lag in Oblivion anymore

Big Typhoon?

Is that a fan? Cooling system/case?

Nice

Congratulations.
Both the chip and the HSF should be a nice improvement.

The Typhoon is ridiculously quiet too.
I've yet to install the BT I got from clocker,
but I have had the chance to power it up.
It's sheer lack of noise makes my Zalman sound like a freakin' 747 in comparison.

I think that both of you will find that the Typhoon benefits from a higher output fan...the stock TT fan, while very quiet, is also very low CFM.
Because of the Typhoon's high fin density, a stronger fan might be beneficial under high load scenarios.
Maybe.

[fkdup74]

I dunno, I wouldn't really call 54 CFM low output.
Other 120mm fans (that I've looked at, anyway) achieve that airflow at much higher noise levels.

Typhoon stock.....54 CFM/16 dB
Silverstone SST-FN121.....53 CFM/26 dB
Vantec 120mm Stealth......53 CFM/28 dB

That is on limited research, though.

Then there's this:
TT Thunderblade 120mm....78 CFM/21 dB

I can also try out this old Radio Shack 120mm I have lying around.
It puts out something like 100 CFM, and a rough guess of around 30-35 dB.

[clocker]

You are assuming that TT's Db rating is correct.
Their figures are widely considered to be total crap.

Anyway, this is probably moot.
The stock fan will most likely be just fine.

Im still looking into getting a freezer 64 pro but 1: I dont know if it will fit in my case 2: do i need it if i can only soft overclock this comp (bastard HP locked bios).
