hey guys, I need some advice. I have a 200 euro budget! My system is the q6600 with a 2.4ghz processor, 4gb ddr3 at 1333mhz, an hd 6940 graphics card, and 2gb of RAM. I'm torn between getting a case (aero 500 or aero 800) or just using a water cooler since my case only has one fan position and I doubt the 212 evo will help much. I also want to overclock, so what should I do? Please :/

I don't have any funds for building for a long time (thanks to Greece), but I can use all these parts on my new PC when I upgrade it later. Buying a new case and power supply are some useful items for a new build in the coming years, though they won't boost performance much. A cooler might help or not, depending on how long you wait and what comes next. You should be able to overclock the CPU with air cooling, but I wouldn't invest in liquid cooling for an old CPU.

I wouldn't invest much in that outdated device to boost overclocking beyond possibly a superior air cooling solution. Better save your funds for your upcoming project.
