Thanks All, I already placed my order last night at millesec for a Alpha pal35d. I am sure it will do the job.

Hmm...

I'm guessing Arctic Silver with a Gorb would work better than an Alpha with standard grease. Price is about the same.

Or you could do what I did and get Arctic Silver with an Alpha. 🙂
 
The Thermaltake Aircooler (GORB) is like $12 at almost every chopshop I've been to here in Omaha, NE. You should have them all over Canada if the local availability is any indication of overall market penetration.
 
I have an Orb but I am not voting here as I have no basis to compare with and this is a brand new machine, still being built, and is my first attempt at OC'ing.

For another source of cooling, try Plycon at:

I was going to buy my Orb there until I came across one at a local computer show. They list quite a few choices and have many case fans and grease etc. I can't comment about how good or bad the prices are but a cheap price on an out of stock item is useless.

Good Luck!
