Artic Silver Ii is a good thermal conducting past used to attach heat sinks to chips. ORBs are fan/heatsink combinations that cool CPUs. An example of an ORB review is at http://www.overclockercafe.com/Reviews/ThermalRight/index.html
Also, a websearch on ORB or Artic Silver Ii will get you discount prices from a lot of places. Jim ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robert H.
