Cooler Recommendation

Hi!

I am currently running a Core2Duo E6300 (Socket 775) overclocked at 3 Ghz (from 1.8 Ghz). I use air cooling: Arctic Freezer 7 Pro. Unfortunately one the push pins of the heatsink broke off, due to mishandling on my part. Thus, the heatsink is now kind of "shaky" and when I am moving the case of my computer just a little bit, it may fall off. I decided to get a new cooler with better performances, instead of trying to fix this one.

I want an air cooler (with heatsink) which has:

a) a good performance
b) is not too loud
c) is not too heavy or big
d) is not too pricey
e) is a good investment for the future, meaning it should fit on a socket 1366 mainboard as well (AM3 support would be a plus)

Can you suggest me around 5 coolers, which fit my requirements?

Thanks alot for your help.

Chris
