Not unless there is a problem with seating the Cooler like I had, which is why I posted that thread.
But, it is an excellent cooler.

I have that RAM, 2 Gig, you dont need any more than that. But it is very good RAM.
Mine is stable at 875Mhz, it might go further but I don't want to over do the voltages.
Dont use Speedfan, it's sh!t. It reads temps about 15 degrees lower than they are in some cases.
CoreTemp is another and also Intel TAT, which will tell you temps and will also allow you to stress test your CPU, to make sure that any Overclock is stable.
Ideally, you want to stress it for 8 hours at least to make sure you have a stable overclock.
Another good test is ORTHOS.
CPU-Z is like Everest, but different...very useful. Allows you to see what your memory timings are ACTUALLY set at too.
So who is giving Dodgy advice then...just want to check that you aren't talking about me!First of all there is some dodgy advice going on hereI think perhaps you should listen to people that actually know what they are talking about
Hmm I have had personal experiences with Scan not returning goods etc so I don't shop with them
In the end though your probally find they are all about the same price. Something is always cheaper then on the other site etc.

Scan can be a bit drawn out, but that is mainly due to them using Shj!tyLink.
