Will it be safer to just get this cooling instead? http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2844210&sku=T925-2034

Its .8 pounds while the ultra one is 5.5 pounds

yeah that would be fine. and then u can use the air duct
and since that heatsink fan is more low profile u could probably even put a case fan on that duct. and u'll be gettin some great temps

Something like this? http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=120565&CatId=494

nah something like this...

and what u would do is unscrew that side air duct. here

and put the case fan in between the air duct and hole. blowing IN. so ur CPU gets all the air it needs

it looks like a 80mm. but what i would do is . get everything. then get the fan later once u KNOW its a 80mm

and about assebling the comp.
heres an easy tut.
its not as hard as u think

all u have to remember is touch the case and make sure ur on tile or laminate with either shoes or bare foot. We dont want any static

How would i know if its a 80 mm?

Sorry about asking SOO many questions.

nah thats koo.

well from the looks of it it seems to be an 80m, i have a 120mm in the side of mine (i happen to put it there myself. hole and all ) if it was any bigger it would be more noticable. to measure it just take a ruler and see how many mm's it is. and say u get something like 78mm than its a 80mm. it might be off a little
