Is the cooler master heatsink and fan worthy of cooling my t-bird? Will it be cool enough for me to overclock? Or should I get alpha?

i have a coolermaster and it sucks..........
first off, its only a 50mm fan that spins at about 5000rpm, so it only pumps out about 10cfm....
the heatsink is sorta sad too..........took my 600 to 900 and i ended up with 55C....not good
the alpha is MUCH better
60mm fan pumps out TWICE the cfms
and it has 300 some pins compared to coolermasters like 50 fins

You might try a Taisol....I have the 733092, and it works great....AMD approved....rated up to 1.1 gig.....and only $11.30.

Taisol coolers

They also make a cheaper model, and a more expensive model....

T-Bird 750@924Mhz - Stock fan wouldn't do it. Alpha PAL6035 now does it at 27-30c idle and 41-43c running SETI. The stock fan at 750Mhz was 37c idle and 45c full load.
