but.................................. i need to find a good cpu cooler, but i dont trust liquid cooling and i can never find the perfect one for a core duo extreme, any suggestions or see a flaw in all of this?

It sounds OK I guess. You could have gone with something a little more powerful. LOL No its brilliant. But I would wait on the 8800GTX, the new radeons are out soon, which will drop the 8800GTX's price, and for the same price you can get a better radeon.
