I really like the zalman 9700. Most on here will tell you to go with the TT.
MaximumPC rates the zalman a 10 and gives it a kick-ass award, never seen them review the Tuniq tho.
found the article in the Feb 2007 of MaximumPc. Using an athlon FX-60 equipped test bed and after running cpu burn-in for one hour, load temps were at 39.5C.
according to the review
Yes, I do like it. It's awfully big tho. Not loud at all and dropped my temps right away once I replaced the stock cooler. With CoreTemp and Orthos running, my temps get to 51C under load at most.
Always use a bit of AS5 for every heatsink you put on (CPU and GPU). Don't apply too much. After its burn in period (200 hours or so), yours temps will drop anywhere from 3-5 degrees C.
The Zalman VF900 or Thermalright HR-03 Rev A (requires separate fan).
