Hi folks
Putting an order through ebuyer for some new stuff to sort out the cooling in my PC

Should i get a new cpu heatsink? the one I have is this

Coolermaster CP5-8JD1F-0L

http://www.vdhsoft.be/memo/18107.HTM

My cpu is a xp2400 so im thinking I should get something that cools it better?

currently my system temp is 42 and cpu temp is 50 I saw it rise yesterday though the case was 43 and the cpu 53, its quite hot in my room most of the time because and its been worse as its been quite hot in my part of the UK for last few days. As you know its been established that its the lack of decent cooling thats causing my system to reboot every 10 mins when I play a game or every 30 mins when I'm surfing the net or just listening to music.

I have one exhaust blower at the moment and I'm currently ordering another 3 fans (2x8cm+1x12cm) and possibly another exhaust blower and some ram heatsinks for the gfx card+ram

I would get a new HSF. The one you have is as "stock" as a none stock HSF can get, it doesnt really provide that extra bit of cooling you might need for a gaming rig thats sitting in a hot room.

Reviews of some of the best air based coolers, though most aren't that cheap, €45 on average.

Any recommendations? I've been thinking cooler master aero 7 lite?

I'm not sure if that will do the job I mean it looks as though it doesnt cost much and to be honest if you guys know of anything better then let me know i want the cpu cooled as much as possible.
