I want a HSF that will clip onto my mobo. No bolt thru as I do not want to remove my board all the time. I may consider a bolt through, if the price is right. What should I get and where? I am running a duron 1ghz at 1.2. It sits at about 85-94 F. Yes, it is warm. I am NOT concerned with sound, as I got the TV on and I have a few case fans.

 
well... 85-94F isn't hot... that's only 34C. Unless you've got freezing case temps, there really isn't a need to swap out your heatsink....

That being said, the best non-bolt heatsink was hte Sk6, its now the Thermalright AX-7.

Either one of those is grat. I got a sk-6 with an 80 mm fan mounting diagonally and it cools great and is quiet too. Thermalright all the way.
 
Well, I ordered up a new HSF, and while I was at it, I got a new processor. I do not recall the HSF I got, but it is a copper one, made by vantec. I got an alumium vantec, and I toially love the clip on it. I got it from newegg. I am also getting a 80cfm delta for it:Q I know it will be loud, but hey, if I don't like it, I can feed ppls fingures in it like a pencil sharpener:Q
