Good LGA 775 HSF

[wixdfast]

Hi, I'm looking for a good >$70 heatsink fan. I currently have the Arctic Cooling Freezer Pro 7, love it, but I'm thinking of upgrading my CPU pretty soon, but I'd like to get my hands on a good HSF first. Any recommendations? Newegg is preferred, but any US site is acceptable. Thanks very much!

I use the ACFp7 on my Q66, why don't you continue using that?

Well I just feel I could be having better temps. I max out at about 71C and thats just a tad too high for me. I was looking at the Vigor Monsoon III. Kinda liked it.

Wow,.. has to be GREATER THAN $70?

I dunno of too many that are that expensive!!!

OCZ vendetta 2
Xigmatek S1283
Thermaltake ultra 120 extreme

are all very good (but the first two won't get you even close to over $70!!!)

EDIT - Those mentioned are all bigger than the ac freezer,.. make sure you have enough room, but if you do they all perform better overall than the ac freezer

Lol, Greater than, less than ftl

Thermalright Ultra Extreme 120 - even keeps an i7 920 cool at 3.9Ghz

there is a review somewhere that shows a graph of it at idle and load temps, and the 120 Extreme demolishes the competition
