Help me figure out which will cool better in my case....

[hennessy1]

I have a Thermaltake VF1000SWA case. I have a qx6700 that I am trying to cool in that case. I had a thermalrite ultra 120 and that does not fit. What is the best heatsink that I can get that will fit in there?

Man, the CNPS7700-CU is heavy - nearly 1kg. Good thing it uses a backplate.

Not sure which would better... there has got to be some reviews our there on both coolers.

well i purchased the 120mm fan heatsink because the 92mm one u have to purchase something extra and the 120mm looks like it will cool better

That Xigmatek HDT-S1283 is tempting...especially considering one doesn't have to remove the motherboard. Of course if the TRU 120 won't work for the OP, this one sure won't.
Has anyone else done a comparison with the "Top 10" air coolers?
