    aznherb36, I found that Newegg has this Zalman CNPS7000B for $38.99 and free shipping. It is a much better hsf than those you linked to and runs quietly too.

    Yeah, that row of caps are fairly close to the socket. :(

    This is stretching your budget just a little if you don't have a spare 80mm or 92mm fan, but Sidewindercomputers has the Thermalright SI-97 for $35.95 plus shipping, which is real reasonable if you use USPS Priority. Sidewindercomputers is a first class company to deal with and I rate them higher than Newegg as a company to buy from. I figure shipping will be in the $5-7 range.

    Dunno if you have the rooom or budget but an aerocool HT101 is excellent, apart from that volcano 12

    That should work just fine on the SI-97, which is designed just like the XP 90 except for being designed to mount on socket A. You don't need a high cfm, noisy fan on them to get decent cooling.

    How does the aerocool HT101 do with two fans? Is there any significant improvement?
