I don't plan on doing an upgrade for a looong time.
I have a Coolmaster Hyper 2. I watched my cooling last night while playing SH4 and COD waw. Max temp on the CPU is 40'C. At idle the CPU is at 32'C. Cut off and terminal meltdown on the X4 7850 is 61'C. I have a lot of breathing room. Can think about overclocking the CPU with that kind of low temp under gaming conditions.
