Best Cooling for $70?

[Deathawk]

For about 70 dollars, what would be the best investment for CPU cooling for Socket LGA775?

Well obviously you need a Thermalright Ultra-120 Xtreme!

Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you that I don't have lapping material, and my case is a CoolerMaster Centurion 5. I wasn't sure if U-120 Xtreme would fit.

May I suggest these components?

 

[Deathawk]

Are you recommending me a lapped Tuniq Tower 120?

 

[VinDSL]

Nope! No need to lap a Tuniq... unlike TRs.

In a round about way, yes, I was suggesting: 1) Get a Tuniq Tower 120, and 2) It will demonstrably fit in your case!

Same lapping problem, no?
