cooling solutions for the amd64 939pin

[thekarney]

The amd64 chips already run pretty cool but if I decide to do some heavy overclocking what would be a good cooler? I am not interested in watercooling so fans with good heatsinks only please. Plaese leave feedback. Thanks!

The usual answers would be the Zalman CNPS7000B-CU (if you're looking for good performance with very quiet cooling) or the ThermalRight XP-120 (best cooling solution right now).

I'm using a Thermalright xp-90 with a panaflo fan. My A64 3200 idles around 34-35C at stock speed according to Asus Probe. Would definitely recommend it.

The xp-120 receives the best rating but seems to be picky when it comes to fitting on some motherboards.
