The Gemini II seems like a okay cooler...I checked on the reviews and it comes in under the ultra chilly II so it seems good...

SVC has the gemini II right now for 29.95 with a 15.00 MIR which puts it at 14.00
Check the online deals section, ZZF has the GeminII for $14.99 shipped no rebates.

The deal only lasts till the 17th so maybe it's just a way for them to lure you to the site and hope you buy more.

LOL ^^

xbitlabs only did only one benchmark for games, only Quake 4


Here are some more gaming benchmarks for you

E2140 outperforms AMD 3600+ in most games

Well I have my E2180 Folding SMP on an Infinity right now and it's only pulling 35C load max.

It's a cool running chip. According to ITE Smart Guardian it's barely sipping the juice Vcore is only 1.13

According to the packaging max Vcore is 1.35. I am going to start OCing now.
