Hey, i know its annoying to see new posts with the same ol reviews, however, after reviewing i kept on getting old posts so i wrote this:
What is the best Air cpu cooler for socket 775lga? Also will it fit the GIGABYTE GA-965P-DQ6 Socket T (LGA 775) motherboard?

noise and cost isnt really an issue.

Air, Water or Phase Change? really depends on what your getting into. the Zalman 9700 is one of the better Air coolers for LGA 775

Probably a High end Zalman Cooler like http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16835118019

The best air cooler, if there's such a thing, would have to be the Tuniq Tower 120; performance wise, i know of nothing better. There's also the Thermalright Ultra-120, Noctua NH-U12F, Scythe Ninja/Infinity/Mine, Zalman 9500/9700, Thermaltake Big Typhoon and Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro. Check their individual sites for compatibility lists (just about any SHOULD fit, but better to be safe than sorry). If you add availability to the list of things that aren't an issue, i don't think you can go wrong with the Tuniq Tower 120.

the two best coolers are the Tuniq Tower if you can find sombody who has one in stock, and the Big Typhoon
