Ok so i was thinking of getting the DK Xigmatek,but i was going around the fourms and heard another one call Mugen 2.

BTW i will do some overclocking and such,and the Mugen 2 Beats the DK by a lil bit(from load):

I believe you are confused. 1 degrees Celsius = 33.8 Fahrenheit, however 1 unit degree Celsius = 1.8 unit degrees Fahrenheit

.

Anyways, I don't really see much of a difference in the two, but from experience I can say I love my Xiggy, and keeps my OC cool.

lol thanks for the correction

I didn't lap it that much, just to get a smooth surface. Everyone warned me to be careful because since the heatpipes are already in direct contact with the CPU, it's not necessary to lap it, and if you sand too much you can damage the pipes or even sand holes into them.

It looks like the two are comparable, but I can't speak for the Mugen, since I've never used it. I personally like the look of the Xiggy.
