Question Q: Which CPU Heatsink for the Q6600?
Once I get the Q6600 with the Gigabyte GA-EP35-DS3L next month. I was wondering which CPU after market cooler would be best for the Q6600? I was thinking of getting the Zalman CNPS9700NT. The Tuniq Tower is pretty much to big for my case. So ill leave that one out of it. But what other?

i own a Zalman CNPS9700NT, it was pretty good the time it was on my Quad so i would suggest that.

If the tuniq is too big, will the TRUE be? I hear that's good.

I still don't understand the hype about the TRUE. You have to pay the same price for most complete coolers just for a block of aluminum and then buy a 120mm fan as well. I'm using the Tuniq but i was using the Asus Silent Knight 2 and that was cooling great.

The Zalman 9700 does the job, I have it on all my rigs. There are others that get slightly better temps than the Zalman, but you might have a room issue like you said.

I hope you talking about a diff case than whats in your sig rig Lawliam. Antec 1200 is way past mid ATX that's a more than modest full ATX.
