Umm...the one that comes with the P4?

The Swiftech's MCX478 does a kick ass job, but 50 duckets w/out the fan... Sorry don't have that kinda fundage.
The other one said that the thermaltake 7+ is good but i've heard that they aren't that great... anything in the middle. That won't kill my budget although I can get the thermaltake 7+ for cheap 30 dollars is awsome... should I buy it?
