    Artic Silver is good stuff, I use it on every pc I build.. Nice operating temp, I didn't think the Volcano units could keep that low of a temp on an overclocked cpu.. Will have to try one of the more recent models and see if they've improved it or if you've just gotten a lucky system configuration ;)

    I love my GF2 :) It's served me extremely well for the past year and a half. I'm probably going to upgrade when the next new Nvidia chipset is released though.

    However, for the price you can get a GF2MX400 for, they're an extremely good bargain and will run any game currently out there at a decent framerate (as long as you have a decent computer to back it). I still put them in new pcs for clients who aren't planning on buying a lot of new games in the next year. When the Doom 3 engine is released, there'll start being more games that the GF2 is inadequate for. As of right now though, I can run every single game on the market reliably.
