Fans on the Gemini II

[CaptainJackSwallows]

So i'm going to be getting a Gemini II heatsink for my cpu (Q6600). I was just wondering if these fans are compatible with the Gemini II since i have some extras. If not, could y'all link me to a good fan under $10 for the Gemini II? Thanks.

You'll be happier with a Thermalright or Tuniq Tower, one that won't break your motherboard in half.

If you read Anandtech's review of the Gemini II:

You'll see that they mounted one FM-121 successfully. You should be able to use a pair of them, not that the performance will be all that great. If you want a top-down cooler, I recommend the Big Typhoon (VX or otherwise; either one is great with the FM-121) or the Enzotech Ultra-X.

I have a Gemini II on my Intel Bad Axe 2 board and it cools it just fine without the threat of breaking the board in half.

This is a pretty good choice. I'm going to be getting two of these on my Gemini II that I picked up from Amazon for $32 shipped. I'm running it right now with one Coolermaster fan and it has decent temps, gonna see if a higher CFM fan will help it much.
