I got PC wood
Just got installing my a kickass cpu heatsink and did one for my 8800GT yesterday. Its frosty in here. Burrrrrrr.
Got my Quad Core 6600 overclocked to 3GHz right now (stock is 2.4) and I'm idling at 33C down from 55C.
My 8800GT is idling at 32C down from high 40's, but the real kicker is when playing. Thing barely reaches 40C.
I can hit 3.6GHz on the stock chitty heatsink but when gaming it jumps up to 70C or higher. If I hit 4GHz I'll have a MASSIVE totem pole.

Its not really worth lappin the cpu. The max gain I've see is 2 degrees. Not worth fudgin up the cpu and when you're gonna sell it how are people gonna know what it is. Ya you can take a pic of whats on screen, but that just makes it difficult.
The heatsink isnt even completely on the cpu so it should cool a little bit more. The backet is on top of two little things on the mobo so the heatsink is sssslightly tilted. Gonna have to grind some off the bracket.

mine runs at a constant 1.21 jigawatts
I wish i was a lil more knowledgeable (sp) when it comes to PC's. I play all of my games on PC (addicted to cod4 ..NY_420) and love the controls with the mouse/keyboard. I just ordered my PC through dell with the better graphics card ( radeon 6600 i think) seems to work pretty good and i show no lag when playing online (usually a 30-50 ping)

If for sure a 6600 then you mean Nvidia and that card is 4 - 5 years old. If its ATi you probably meant 2600 version. Thats the mid class. Well was. The 2900 was the king but now they came out with the HD 3870 (numbers numbers numbers [>:] ) and the dual HD3870 (has two gpu's on one board)
