Don't get the Zalman - it cannot dissapate enough heat for a overclocked quad:

Get:
Xifmatek,
TRUE,
Tuniq,
OCZ Vandetta,
TT Big Typhoon

[In that order i think]

And get a nice powerful 120x38mm fan like the Scythe Ultra Kaze

I've asked the same question on another forum...
The replies I got where:

http://www.scan.co.uk/product.aspx?ProductId=22841 Xigmatek, good cooler, cheap, performs well compared to the others
http://www.scan.co.uk/Product.aspx?W...source=froogle TRUE....not such a great one as it was expensive and I hear it only outperforms the Xigmatek by a few degrees...
http://www.scan.co.uk/Product.aspx?WebProductId=767365 ZEROtherm...supposedly beats TRUE and Scythe Infinity....and has an enticing blue light =P

People also said good things about Scythe Mine and Ninja....the strong points of these is the low noise, but it's not that compromising to the performance, apparently. These are around £25-30.

Hope that's useful :P

No, A different one, a Raidmax Aurora mid tower.

Hmm, I beg to differ sir. My 11 quads do just fine with the Zalman.

The Xifmatek is looking good. Check out the reviews and that might be the one. Only problem that seems is installing it. But its cheap and it look like it does the job.

Vendetta 2 is on par with TRUEs, and the TT is closer to the bottom.
