Just browse this forum ands you will find many many threads on fans and heatsinks.....

The Big 5 in my opinion are....

Scythe Ninja
ThermalRight SI 120
ThermalRight XP 90 Copper
ThermalRight XP 120
Then I would say we have a tie at 5th between
Zalman 9500 and the Big Typhoon

Just my opinion!!

Yes, the XP-90 is excellent for good cooling with low noise levels (with the right fan.) The XP-120 is better, but sadly, it is not gauranteed to fit on the K8N Neo2.
