I could do that. I don't feel like selling a heatsink though. I guess Ill just get the bracket. I wish it wasnt 11 bucks though. :/ Id think 5 bucks would be fair for what it is....
I bought this mobo/cpu/memory combo from a friend and I want to make sure the CPU checks out before I commit to buying an AM2 bracket for my old Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme cooler heatsink that I am going to put on it.
I just want to make sure the CPU temps look right before I put it on.
Assuming TRUE 120 = Thermalright 120 Ultra Extreme I think Ill shell out the 11 bucks if its a better cooler than the $35 cooler.
Best bang for the buck I guess?
Hello,
I can't find a straight answer on what the normal idle temperature and Prime95 100% stress test load temperature of the AMD Phenom II X6 1090T (with stock heatsink and fan with a properly ventilated case.)
I am using the latest version Core Temp (1.0 RC6).
My room temp is 70 degrees...
I'm sorry I don't understand your response. Are you saying the $11 it will take to upgrade my Thermalright 120 Ultra Extreme with the bolt through kit to my AM3 motherboard will do better than a new $35 heatsink and cooler today?
I know my Thermalright was one of the best, but that was like 7...
Hrm. Im not comfortable buying a bolt kit that is like 10-20 bucks when I can buy the same cooler with the kit for 30 bucks. Doesn't make much sense!

I guess I am looking for a new cooler to buy then?
Hello,
I have a Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme CPU cooler that I want to take from my other Q6600 rig and plug into my ASUS M4A89TD AM3 motherboard with a AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition.
I need to buy a bolt through kit so it fits the AM3 motherboard,
Thing is that this kit is...
Oops sorry. I forgot that price checks were illegal.
Whats the deal with PCI Express 2.0 Vs 3.0 though? Will I see a performance hit using a $200 video card? How about a $500 video card?
Howdy,
So I have a super old gaming system (Q6600 w/ 8GB ram and a 8800 GTS 512MB) and a friend from work is looking to upgrade his system. He wants $150 for all of the below.
He has:
