I've seen what the Xigmatek HDT-S1283 can do...
And I've seen what a TRUE can do, they're about equal... give or take and the HDT-S1283 is half the price? o.o

I say again. TRUEs vary in performance. I would recommend a Xigmatek for anyone that can't spend the extra cash, but if you can, the TRUE is your friend.

1.True-if budget is not a concern, pick the right fan for your set-up, don't mind doing the prep required (lapping). An older version would not be subject to quality-control issues that the new ones are experiencing.
2.Xigmatek-best bang-for-the-buck, within a couple degrees of True
3.OCZ Vendetta 2-basically same as Xigmatek, $10 more, quieter, PWN fan control if desired

Too loud for me but a good option, especially at this price:

You can put the AC 64 with the AC 7, basically the same thing, just 1 is for Intel, the other is for AMD.
Great budget cooler. You can find it on sale for ~$20 sometimes. It will not work as well as some of the $70 coolers, but for most, it does quite well (and is pretty quite and has a 4 pin MoBo plug.

xigmatec s1283 i have used for a while it seems to be the best for me. and i have recently found a few review sites saying it got the coldest for them on quad cores and dual cores so would go with that.

TRUE is not worth it at all. You have to really mess with the settings.
