Not bad... need a cooler to go with a new case? I have a few around...
I actually just bought a new socket 478 cooler... low profile, all copper (wiht thick base and thin fins), so I could use it in my mATX case and still use an optical drive (was interference due to height)...
I am totally out of the loop with Intel stuff so no help there. I have dealt with Fry's enough to know you better get some power to the board and CPU and make sure they are good before your 30 days is up. I played hell with more than one of their combo deals trying to get a working one.

For that price it's a good deal. It's not their latest CPU, and not the top board, but it should be make for a very capable 2nd system, kids system, or any non-heavy game use system.

You wouldnt happen to have a silent cpu cooler fan laying around, would ya? Or maybe a small plastic attachment to convert 120mm fan to 80mm? My cpu fan is like a damn jet engine, i need to replace with something like 22dBA. I run athlon xp 2800+ _________________ If you can read this, you have hacked my encryption. HACKER!
