Can i just jump in and voice my opinion of this cooler...

I really like this cooler, i didnt want to buy a TRUE online and my local PC shop has the Noctua NH-U12P for A$79 which is a lot for a CPU cooler but whatever so i decided to take a gamble. I think it a great cooler for any PC. Although my X2 6000 is not a huge heat load i have seen much better temps than with my Big Typhoon. Importantly the quality is amazing. The packaging, manual and mounting kit is simply great, unlike the TRUE no optional AM2 mounting kit which in Aus is an extra $10

I think this cooler is great and well worth looking at, its performs really well, looks great and is really quiet. Not only that but the manual is great and despite the seemingly complicated mounting the instructions make it easy and the results are great

Overall if your looking for a good cooler for AM2 and you dont want to jave to fiddle with clip mounting or lapping give this cooler a try because i can assure you it is a really good cpu cooler...

Anyone have any idea how much of a performance gain you'd get from adding another Noctua NF-P12 to this heatsink? I'm just wondering because I may want to swap my Xigmatek HDT-S1283 for a Noctua NH-U12P with a push-pull setup.

They get 2 degress less load with 2 over 1 NF-P12 fans

Also look here as they also tested with a push pull setup

Temps are probably around the same (you'd need to check review/bench sites for that though), but build and overall package quality, i'd say, have got to be better. I myself cannot verify this though, as i don't have a Xigma.

Awesome! That makes it about equal to my Xigmatek HDT-S1283, but it'll be quieter! I think I might just go ahead and swap then.
