not sure about the prices in your area, but where i am that cooler is $82 and the Noctua NH-D14 is 89.99 so really for 7 dollars there is NO reason to get that cooler

(i'm pretty sure most people on this forum would agree)

as for the rest of the system it's looking good, But if you haven't actually bought everything yet, i would really consider looking at the 560Ti instead of the 6850. i know its a little more expensive but with its preformance i really think you should consider it. If you're really tight on money, maybe a 550Ti?? (not actually sure if the 550 will bet the 6850, but the 560 will for SURE)

don't forget to post some pics when you get everything together

Hi i have had this cooler for about 2 years now and it is brilliant not as good as the NHD-14 or a custom watercooling kit but it performs well and if you are overclocking it will keep it cool till a point but at stock you should have no problems with this cooler at all

I have a Zalman Performa which is similar. The Performa comes with a PWM fan which runs at ~900rpm when not playing games. The cpu is cool and the case is quiet.

overclock3D tends to review brand new stuff. Those coolers are relatively old news, I think.

550 TI is not that powerful, a 6850 is much faster. I'm disappointed in the 550 tbh I was expecting it to be in between a 460 and 560 in terms of performance but it's no where near.

Go with the 560TI Xplosiv.

said i wasn't sure, but darn... didn't think it would be that bad

well yes then i would definitely go with the 560 myself

Zalman=€52 Noctua=€75 so i think zalman in that case it being more than €20 cheaper!

As for the gpu i have looked into the gigabyte 560Ti SOC which is €245 or gigabyte 560Ti OC that is €232.But the reason I wanted the 6850 is that it is only €169 and money saved from this would go towards another one for crossfire in the near future.

P.S will definately post pics when it all arrives!!!!

Oh and I will want to overclock the Sh*t out of the 2500k!
