I live in Poland. Unfortunetly i dont see that coller in any good polish store.
I found it here: http://www.angela.pl/p2986,xigmatek-...283-120mm.html But 150PLN is a bit expensive. Are there something good and cheaper?

How about this one, costs less but it's a good performer anyway. Look around in other shops too, maybe you can get it for a better price.

I am really gratefull for your so fast help with my problem.
I decided that i choose between 2 coolers: Pentagram Freezone HP-120 AlCu Karakorum and Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro. I think that i should buy 4gb of RAM. I wonder if i should buy 2x 1gb of the same RAM which i have now (2x2GB DDR2-1066 Patriot Viper Low Latency), or buy some new 2x 2gb. What do u think?

Kel - those are garbage for overclocking
The revision 2 is supposed to be a bit better , but I had to take mine off my Q6600 as it was hitting 65c+ @2.1Ghz idle.

I'd say go for the Pentagram, it seems very very similar to the Sunbeamtech/Tuniq Core Contact Freezer or the SilenX IXC-120HA2, basically it seems that there is a manufacturer that makes them and then sells them to various brands.
Anyway it should be definitely more than enough for a 3.4 OC if your CPU scales decently with voltage.

Well you probably cannot go much past that frequency with a quad core.
With a dual, you should have no problems till past 3.4 or so.

OK, but u say that you would choose pentagram one. I will buy Pentagram Freezone HP-120 AlCu Karakorum then.
Now, what about RAM? Shall i buy 2x 2GB of some new RAM or add 2x 1GB to my old Patriot?

Getting a new 2x2GB kit will make OCing much easier. And probably allow a higher OC too as the kits will not be matched.

So, summing it up. For mainstream usage and people that do not plan really hardcore overclocks the Freezer Xtreme will do a splendid job. Next to the ease of use it's also really silent which is a major plus in my book. Combine these two facts with is very decent price and we can surely say that it's a Guru3D recommended product.
