i think everyone here would pretty much agree....

Sunflower $18
Thermaltake P4V 478 $11
Thermaltake Dragon 478 $28

...anyone of these will work just fine.

no proff yet that the $42 alpha is worth anything.
i use a Thermaltake P4V 478 w/ASII (p4 1.8a @ 2.4ghz 1.65v) - max temp is 41C

If you want no noise with pretty decent cooling, get the Alpha 8942 and attach a low noise 80mm fan. But like THUGSROOK mentioned, the Alpha has a hefty price.
