The very best is a lapped TRUE with a 38mm fan(sold separately).
The next best thing is a Noctua NH-U12P right out of the box. If you are budget conscious then you have a plethora of choices:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...page=2&bop=And Just keep in mind that if you decide to get an HDT cooler, AMDs work better with the 4-heatpipe design due to the layout of the chips under the IHS.

HDT is Heatpipe Direct Touch. That means that the heatpipes are exposed and touch the integrated heatsink of the CPU directly.
