VCOOL?! Athlon Cooling

[mina2k]

Everybody tell me what you think about VCOOL for your athlons. Its freeware and cools your cpu. Not spyware either! Freeware! I got about 5C less just for enabling it.

Woohoo first post!

Welcome!

I never tried any cooling, but if your mobo is kt266 or kt266a then drop vcool and try this Click here, it keeps me in the 20's (C) when im idle.

no change. Well, actually, my CPU is running at 38 instead of 39 like it was yesterday, but my ambient temperature is also down a few degrees.

I've used Vcool for 5 months, very lite overhead, during a typical night, playing mp3's while working the web my cpu is less than 1 degree C higher than case temp. But I use a heat pipe and that makes a big difference.
