Heat Sink

[CLite]

Because of a hot deal for the Tuniq I can get both around 45 bucks.

Equipment:
CM690 Tower
Gigabyte DS3L
4 X 1 GB ballistix DDR2 800
1 X somesort of IDE HD I guess
Caving in to getting E6750 can't find a freaking cheap E4500.
Evga 7900GT

Any kind of sizing issues? if I upgrade to 8800? I obviously want full access to all my RAM slots.

125$ from newegg shipped not good enough for E4500? E6750 is about $190 shipped. I'm in a similar position as you, I was thinking of saving the money to get E4500 at $125 and use the "saved" money on Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme for 55$ and a yateloon D12SL-12 $5 both from SVC.com

I don't know enough about the motherboard to offer you guidance there...

Hands down the best cooler I've ever used. Well worth the extra money IMO.

But between your two, I think I might go with the Tuniq.

Just FYI...
Cheaper than newegg, can get both the "best fan" and "best heatsink" at the same time. I've never had any problems with SVC.

There was a thread in Hot Deals on Micro Center having the E4500 for $109.99.

For the heatsink, the Tuniq is the better performer, but the Ninja can make for a quieter system and is decent especially if you add a Thermalright bolt-through kit to it.

Yeah I saw that deal it's back to 125.

I would say that's a better fan.

I have some of those Yate Loons...they have a bit more whine.
