I agree. I have a Sonata and cant stand the fact that the "intake" fan goes BEHIND the HDD and not in front of it to suck air form ouside the case. The Sonata seems to only reciculate the air. Believe it or not, My CPU temps rose by 4 degrees with an extra fan behind the HDD bays.
I have an EVGA GT w/ leadtech ultra bios @ 435/1.2 stable (440/1.2 max)

I recently added another stick of 512 to my system and then it got unstable. I upped the voltage but anything over one notch and it will be unstable so now im running slow timings. When i had 1 stick, it used to run fine at fast timings with ram voltage upped 1 notch. Either sticks can run fast...
