Default OCZ or Zerotherm?

Should i get the vendetta 2 or the NV120 Premium from zeortherm?
What will they both run at on full load with a Q6600@3.2GHz and 1.4Vcore

The zerotherm wins on all the reviews by 10 degrees over this cooler when it comes to overclocked Quads.

I'd say wait a bit longer and get a TRUE... However I think the Zerotherm OR the Vendetta 2 would be good on that Quad Core, typically, the HDT Vendetta2/S1283 (What I have now) runs better on dual cores, Not sure about the Zerotherm though.

the s1283 and its copies are amazing for dual cores, and fine for quads to an extent.
if you can get more money, look for a noctua u12-p

(not a TRUE unless you want to lap, washer mod, and put high pressure (usually loud as hell) fan on it)

The Vendetta 2 is a really good cooler

Easily among the top 5.

Is the Xig S1283 not $26 AR+FS anymore? It was a great deal...

Otherwise, OCZ Vendetta 2 should have similar performance at a budget.

NV120 for it's design and get something that not much people have. I would had bought a TRUE but everyone suggests it and I hate being a follower.
