T-bird coolers, but not over the brink.

[Ashpool]

Since I'm building a system and planning on super-cooling it once I get all the parts (well, I mean withing the realm of Fans and Heatsinks http://www.sharkyforums.com/ubb/tongue.gif), I would really like to ask what would be the best HSF for a T-bird. But at least keep it within $70-so or below. Don't want to go overkill.

The globalwin CAK38 and the OCZ gladiator are both choices. they are both about 30 dollars. the swifttech m-462 is a very good one but is about 70 bucks. all these heastsinks are copper too.

i agree, I have an OCZ Gladiator w/ delta fan, and the swiftiec mentioned above is a top-notch preformer. FOr a little more over your budget, you could get a noise control silverado, it's virtually silent, but it's goin cost you. I would go w/ the swiftec
