I just bought a Dell Dimension E520. I would like to expand its cooling capability as much as possible? Any recommendations for aftermarket cooling on this pc without destroying the case? Also, what is a good CPU cooling system for the Core 2 Duo 6400? Thanks for the input

When you are dealing with a Processor that powerful and that expensive, you do not want a cooling product that will damage it, and therefore, have you replace it. The thing that you have to look-out for, when adding an extra fan to the case, is can you do it, in the first place. What I mean by this, is I mean that if you do not have room to upgrade in the case, and/or if there is not another slot to put a fan into place, then you can't upgrade via putting a second fan into it. ALSO, YOU HAVE TO SEE WHAT THE LENGTH IN MM THE FAN SLOT IS. Otherwise, you are good to go. Here is a good website that has ALL COMPUTER FANS, AND ETC. . . THAT YOU CAN BROWSE AROUND AND LOOK AT, and I hope you enjoy the website! It also has information and detailed pictures on what you are buying, and how it will look when it arrives to you at your door-step:

Without doing major surgery, like installing water cooling, the best you can do is replace or add fans
