Greetings,

I am building a new computer and have an SLI Motherboard, XFX nForce 680i LT, I have a Core2 Quad 2.4 Hz cpu and want to get a really good heat sink and cooling fan. What would you recommend? I prefer it to be quit, but am more concerned about the effectiveness, don't want to burn out the cpu. 

Also looking at power supplies, will the heat sink and fan make a difference? Everything I have read points to whether or I will be using two graphics cards. At this time i will not be, but maybe in a year I will. I am currently planning on getting the Truepower Trio, 650 Watt, ATX12 v22 & EPS12v.

Thanks for any ideas.

Mike Fitz
