Unstable with 2x256 MB DDR Ram

Smartfan w/ volcano 7+

My Volcano 7+ works great, but its just too loud at high speed, and it gets annoying to have to switch it all the time. Is there any way I can get that new Smart Fan II w/ the automatic variable fan speed and attach it to the heatsink I have?

hot Athlon

Just to let you know.. in the AMD spec the temp that your CPU will die at is 90 degrees C!!!! They also say that any time above 70 can cause permanent dammage. I would do something about those temps fast!

Where to get Rounded IDE cables

I'm looking to get a good deal on the Rounded IDE cables to help increase the airflow inside my case. The cables need to be ATA 133 compatible. Where should I go to get the best price? I also want a floppy drive cable.
