Question for all A8N32-SLi Owners

I recently built a new system with the A8N32-Sli Dlx motherboard, A64 X2 4400+, and eVGA 7800GTX KO. It's been running for a couple weeks now. There have been a few times when I system would lockup while playing games. Only like 3-4 times. I installed the ASUS Probe software lastnight and it is repo...

Need a Cooler for my BFG 6800GT OC......Any Suggestion?

Currently the BFG GeForce 6800GT OC is the loudest device in my computer. So would like to get something that would keep it quieter. Any suggestions for this?

I just ordered a couple of the Nexus 120mm fans from SVC.com. I'm going to try one first, but I may add the second one as an intake, or get a XP-120 and put it on it.

Would the Arctic Coolling NV Silencer 5 (Rev. 2) work with my BFG GeForce 6800GT OC? And make it quieter?

Nexus 120mm Fan..Will it help keep my system cool and quiet?

Below is my current setup. I'm not real happy with the Vantec Stealth 120mm fan, and I would like to replace it with something quieter like the Nexus 120mm. And maybe add one to the front. Also, I need a cooler for my CPU. I guess either a Thermalright XP120 or XP-90. How well does the XP-120 cool w...

I'm not going to mess with the Zalman, I'm getting a new CPU and MB so I'm going to get a new CPU Cooler also. I would like to get the Termalright XP-120 if it will fit on my MB. So what 120mm should I get for it? I'm not going to be over clocking my CPU, I just want something that will cool it and ...

Best CPU Fan for Athlon 64 3800+ on a ASUS A8V Deluxe MB

I just orderd my new Athlon 64 3800+, and ASUS A8V Deluxe MB. I need to know what quiet CPU Cooler to get for the combo. Seems like Zalman is out of the question, as it does not fit easily. I was looking at the Nexus AOP-6400. Let me know what you think.

Nothing is wrong with an Adapter cable, but I want to put a quieter PowerSupply in the system so I might as well get on that supports SATA. Would THIS work for the 2 60mm fans, and THIS work for the 80mm fans? I'm not going to even try to put a 120mm in the case. I like the Nexus PowerSupply, my que...
