If anyone is planning on buying a radeon 9800 pro, I suggest this one, plus its at a good price and has the best cooling I`ve seen on a graphics card and sports a blue LED fan... http://www.tekheads.co.uk/site/product.do?productId=601630

I cant install motherboards, CPUs etc, I can only install RAM, PCI cards Fans (not CPU) and graphics cards. I`m not a very knowlegable guy when it comes to the CPU and I hate the thought of static electricity damaging it... I would have gave you the CPU though. The fan is hard to clip onto the...
