Low profile CPU coolers for 1U case (AMD)

To all,

looking for some suggestions on low profile CPU coolers that would work well in a 1U case. Most of the ones I'm finding here are *large*. CPU will probably be an AMD socket 939 (or Socket A if I go cheap)

My thanks in advance,

Durnik
 
For an Athlon64 look at this cooler You're going to be limited in choices with either processor with you wanting the 1U form factor. Are you actually using a 1U case or no? If so, why? Can you get away with a 2U case? That would open up your cooler options more, as well as provide better cooling.
 
Zepper, Akira,

my thanks to both of you, those are exactly the types of items I was looking for. It's been ages since I've shopped/built a system from scratch and the 'google' effect was overwhelming me with to many sites without real solutions. You two have led me to great choices and great sites.

My thanks to both of you,
Durnik

PS: Akira, they're definately 1U cases, my home lab right now is 28 ancient and underpowered miss matched cast offs (I work in the IT industry and use my lab to stay current in products and integration). I've made the absolute decision to clean it up and make a clean 1U environment.
