I am going to be ordering the bulldozer probably day one it comes out and the cooler I have now for my CPU is decent but I want to have a bulldozer and not melt the side of my case off. Any suggestions as to what I should get? Money is no matter.

thermaltake? really?
is this one of those they used to suck now they are good stories?
Direct touch heat pipes are all the rage, they normally perform the best. Personally, when I look for a cooler for my own builds I like to strike a balance between performance, weight, and ease of installation. I like to replace my CPU every year or so, and between that time, I might pull it to re apply the thermal compound. So, if its requires allot of work to remove the cooler, I'm generally against it, even if it can keep my CPU a whole two degrees cooler and boost my overclock a whopping 40 megahertz. (sarcasm intended). Consider the balance of everything you may want, and not just which giant monster performs the best.
You could also consider one of these little nifty self contained water coolers?
You replace your rear 120 mm fan with the radiator, and the fan blows across the radiator and out the case. If there is enough room, you can actually mount two fans and get a little extra cooling in in a push/pull configuration. The two tubes are connected to a water block that goes to the CPU.
