if that extra 1 or 2 C realy counts go for the TRUE , Otherwise the xigmatek hsf's are still great coolers even at low rpm.

True will perform better @ high watts which is what you need. Also the quad that u get is it new or used cause new quads don't go more then 3.4ghz and there is no need for true.
