Quick tip for Conroe guys:

Hey! I doubt if many of ya need told this, but improving the Chipset cooling WILL help overclocks. A couple quick posts with Coolaler reveals that he got another 30MHz out of his FSB just by changing his chipset from stock to good air.

Coming from Coolaler..I doubt if its fluke, or he forgot a setting that he only changed after switching the cooler.

Tis a worthy note - most peeps will just add a 40mm fan onto the current cooler - although bespoke chipset coolers are available to use if required.

What about active cooling on the southbridge? Any improvements there?

It worked on Abut IC7-MAX3 and the Asus P4c 800-E-Deleuex so a heatsink being fitted can nly add some benifit to it

even more so, since due to the low multi, the chipset WILL be the limitation
