ARKUA 7228 HSF

[xbassman]

I am looking to buy a new HSF.

Right now I am running a 1.0 TBird on an Asus A7V-266E @1.23ghz. I haven't gone any higher yet because I have seen temperatures as high as 56C. I am using a GlobalWin FOP32-1 w/ Arctic Silver II.

I found this ARKUA HSF @ Newegg for $16. Just checkin with you guys for some input.
i am also interested in the Coolermaster heat pipe HSF.

here's a review link for the ARKUA HSF.

If you have other favorites you have my ear!

Ok I found it again on a top ten list along with the Alpha's and other top names.

I cant use a PAL8045 or Thermaltake Sk6 without making modifications. (A7V266-E) I don't really want to do that.

Actually Newegg has the top (on this list) rated hsf (w/o delta) for about $24.

You have to make modifications to use a Thermalright SK-6? It's only a 60mm HSF.

Oops...Thermalright.

Yeah...I don't want to mod anything. I want to buy one that I can install directly.

SK-6 should fit on an Asus A7V266-E last I checked. Maybe you're thinking of the AX-7, which is a bigger heatsink?
