Just wanted to thank everyone who gave me advice on my CPU cooler upgrade, RAM upgrade, and video card upgrade over the last couple months. I am very noobish and I was able to upgrade them all thanks in large part to all your advice.
1. CPU cooler went from the Asetek LCLC to the Noctua NH-U12P SE2. My temps are reading 6 to 7 degrees celcius cooler with the new Noctua @ 100% load using prime 95.
2. I upgraded the RAM to 6 gigs.
3. I just installed the ATI 5870 and seems to be running really well.
I really appreciate all the time you guys give out. It goes to good use!

You were right about the Noctua coolers DST4ME. My temps seem to be 6 degrees cooler at 100% load.
I wanted to go with the bigger noctua but i did not want to have to move the fans outside the case as I have the haf 922.
