I am looking to put a better heatsink and/or fan on my northbridge chipset. I have 2 questions, a). Has anyone reviewed or had a Thermaltake Crystal Orb cooler installed on the northbridge, and how did it work? b). If used in conjunction with a Thermaltake Ramsink, will those 2 items allow me to up my fsb (frequency) of my motherboard?. I can upgrade the frequency to 150 and its stable, my mother board goes up from 150 to 155, and then at 166/33. Thats why i was wondering if those 2 cooling methods would help me reach the 166 without locking up before it can start. Thanks guys, you are the pros!
