Hi, I'm building a new computer and can't decide which heatsink I should get. I already bought the i7 920 cpu with asus p6t deluxe motherboard. I'm looking for a good heasink that will keep my overclocked cpu cool. Please recommend me some good heatsinks!
Here is a list of parts that I'm getting for my computer http://forums.anandtech.com/me...=2277696&enterthread=y
Thanks in advance :)

It seems that the TRUE is still one of the best HSFs to get.

ohh thats some nice info right there! so probably I'll be buying the ''Thermalright TRUE Black Ultra-120'' if no one else points me to a better heatsink :) I was looking at FrostyTech top 5 heatsink http://www.frostytech.com/top5heatsinks.cfm for some reason Thermalright Ultra 120 ended up in 6th spot...

The review you linked is for a LGA775 socket, not the LGA1366. This may make a difference in the HSF performance.
