I've come across the Sunbeam CC Freezer, Scythe Infinity Mugen, TRUE120 (I have it), Noctua (some of them - cannot remember the models), Titan Fenrir, Akasa Nero, and Scythe Mugen.
i recommend the bold ones + Prolimatech Megahalems similar to a TRUE - depends on the cpu as to whether it or the TRUE are better......

And by far it is better than the stock cooling, how can i complain with that? Any game i own, max settings, done, no problem.


Why the harsh rejection mate? Or just not fan of it's good looks?
i owned one before i had my TRUE, that waste of copper did 66C load at stock... granted, 5C better than stock but seriously... then i got my TRUE and i load at 54C at 3.2

Scythe mugen 2, TRUE, or noctua nh-u12p wold be absolutely fine.
sunbeam CCF is not recommendable, the mounting is god horrible

mfb412,

I understand. I've seen my V-1 at 50c (but gaming, not full load). Idle it stays between 35-37c.

Since i plan to overclock once i read up some more, i'm pretty much decided on the Megahalems.

... just looking into what fan to run with it, whether a single or dual - if i have room. I've read up on CFM and Static Pressure, considering those and that i want a reasonably silent cooling, i'm thinking either Noctua or maybe give the Akasha Apache a go for fun - looks are kinda important to me.

Would you say i'm on the right path?

none of those are recommendable for such a think, dense heatsink... an 86 CfM 120x38mm Panaflo wold be alot better, even if it was a single one

You'd get a lot of bang for your buck with a Xigmatek Red Scorpion S1283 and it would look sick in your case. Those Xiggy fans are pretty impressive on their own. I'm very happy with my Dark Night which is pretty much the same thing.
