My CPU cooler is 4 inches wide, 2 1/2 inches tall, it has thin copper blades and does not have any heat pipes. The brand on the fan says [I]N[/I]MEDIAPC. I do some gaming: GTA IV, Crysis, COD4, COD5. Thanks.

You want to game with that piece of shit..? I'll save up till at least $1500 and build a new rig. Reason - processor is shit. So is the graphic card. If you upgrade both of them you prolly need to upgrade your motherboard. If you upgrade all that you'll need to upgrade your PSU. And your heatsink sucks.

To n00bmuffin: thanks. To Physlithium: I know this computer sucks but its what i'm stuck with for now for a long time, thanks anyway.
Alright, then what n00bmuffin posted might be good for you. You might try getting a ACF7P if you want to o/c your processor.
hold on
