    Looking for something new...

    I'm looking into upgrading or getting something new for my PC. I have no idea what to purchase at the moment and would like you guys to post your suggestions on some things. It can be anything. My PC specs are to the left.

    Has to be under $100 US! It can be from any retailer, online or not. I'm already planning on purchasing the following:

    - Seagate 500GB HDD
    - Logitech Wave Keyboard
    - Logitech G5 or Razer Copperhead Mouse
    - Razer eXactMat and eXactRest

    so no need in suggesting any of these.

      Get a nice CPU cooler/heatsink.

      Tuniq is sexerlent.
      Your CPU has an AM2 socket right?

          Sorry to sound stupid, but how did you find that CPU cooler? I searched for AM2 socket CPU coolers and only got these http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...ame=Socket+AM2

          That Tuniq Tower is screw on? Out of the 3 CPU coolers I had so far, they were all clip on.

          Cons: Freaking huge. You will probably not get away without a few cuts and scrapes getting this installed. Getting this installed onto a socket AM2 with the included clip was one of the least-fun experiences I have ever had in PC assembly. You will invent new and interesting combinations of curse words.
          ^^ lol

              A lot of the CPU coolers are compatible with socket AM2 and LGA775 cpus. So when you search AM2 under 'compatibility', it will list all the ones that are only compatible with socket AM2 cpus.

              So to get it to list all of them, just don't put anything for the 'compatibility' option

                  Yeah, its compatible with both:
                  "How is Tuniq Tower 120 compatible with AMD Socket AM2 CPU?"

                  Its freakin' huge, but its definitely the best on the market.
