Coolermaster Aero 7 heatsink?

[Sunbird]

I was just wondering how good this heatsink is? If anyone has experience with it.

It has an adjustable fan speed so I can keep it as quiet as possible for the temps my overclock will get, and regarding over clocking, I'm planning to get a 2500+ and taking it up to 2800+ Barton level.

If your wondering why I'm asking about this one, its the best one (and most expensive one) I can get from my supplier and those slk's and such aren't really available here in South Africa.

Thanks for any input.

I have the Aero 7 lite, almost the same thing but less CFM at full fan speed and an aluminum heatsink with a copper core. I'm pretty impressed with this one, although it doesn't cool much at the lowest speed (didn't expect it to)... You'll see great temps with that Aero 7+

There are a bunch of reviews on it just search google

What thermal grease are you going to use?

I've got two of the blowers on two different heatsinks, so I cannot comment on the Cooler Master heatsinks that come in the package. As for the blower, it is great at low speeds. Nice and quiet. Temps are what I'd call average. About like a 30cfm 80mm fan on my overclocked rigs. Theres a 'but' here though....anything over ~25% power and the blower is a whiny/obnoxious little bitch. There's no way I would have kept them if they needed more than ~25% power to keep the CPUs cool.
