  • Most users will find that they need fewer parts than the kit offers. Net-N-Dude allows full customization of the option list with the ability to add/remove items at a price.

    For our kit, which included just the CPU, Supercool 4500, and the MSI adapter, our price was as follows:

  • MSI slotket adapter $11.00
  • Supercool 4500 $25.00
  • Celeron PPGA CPU 366 ---> 550 $110.00

    Total $146.00

    The prices on our individual components were slightly more expensive than they would be if they were purchased in the full 5-piece combo that Net-N-Dude sells for $286.00, but we didn't need the SDRAM or the mainboard so for us the individual program made more sense.

    When we opened the Net-N-Dude package after it arrived we found a single piece of paper that detailed the procedure for installing the Supercool 4500 fan/heatsink on the CPU, along with some thermal grease.

    Also included in the box was the instruction manual for the MSI slotket converter, detailing the voltage setting jumpers that card includes as well as the correct CPU installation procedure.

    Everything was very professionally packaged, and easy to understand even for someone who may be new to overclocking.
