Better cooling than Xigy DK, please advise
I must say my Xigma Darknight has been a good cooler but it just doesnt have the cooling power i expected. My AM3 955 deneb runs kinda warm even with a pathetic 400mhz overclock I still idle right at 40c and cap out around 52c with a heavy load or multi tasking. I need better.
any ideas? air only. I have plenty of space in my case so it can be HUGE! if need be.

That Xiggy DK is idling my OC'd X3 720 @ 3.5ghz at 22C right now. I'd have to say I'm very impressed with it. Sorry you aren't getting good results.

you could go with push/pull on the zigy. Maybe some YL mediums, or panflows. Those temps are pretty good, depending on your ambients.
