cpufan maybe aero7+ (see my post http://www.pcabusers.com/forums/showthr ... adid=27738 )

With help of some friends and other people i arrive to this solution:

vcore 1.75/1.8 fsb 215/220 mult 10x timings 2225 vdimm 2.9 (2.8 from bios)

that looks like it's in the ballpark, but you need to start at stock settings, load everything you might want and then work up the the fsb -

take the fsb up at stock voltage until it stalls , then add .5 v

repeat until you figure out your highest fsb - thenyou can start playing with the multi

your best combo is usually somewhat less than highest fsb/highest multi

the higher the fsb, the more heat you generate in the mobo, so you may want to consider some additional coolling for the mobo - a lot of folks have some sort of case fan inside the case blowing on the mobo sort of zalman like

each combo turns out to be a little different - you'll just have to play with it

welcome to PCA!

i put 4 case fan 80x80 (2 in and 2 out)
i hope this is enaught!
I know the procedure to increase the fsb then the vcore , but before do i must set timings(2225) and vdimm (2.8)? then fsb and vcore?

A thermalright should kick the aero 7s azz. 4 fans should be plenty, just make sure they are set up logicaly to promote good flow

how to logically promote good flow?
Is it right to use 2 fan 80x80 for in flow
and 2 fan 80x80 for out flow??
