Plenty of good cooling choices out there. Personally, I have the Globalwin WBK w/ a ys-tech fan and it works fine on my 1ghz box. You may need something better, like the Taisol CGK760092. If you have the money, the Swifttech MC462A is another good solution. Just try a search for more opinions and reviews.

taisol 760092 with the copper inlay using a delta 38cfm if you dont' mind the noise this fan makes, if you do care get a sunon or a ys tech

I have a GlobalWin CAK-38.... little heavy (510g) buts works ok... pure copper heat sink with a delta fan.


Mind you I'm still hitting 50c with my 1.333 t-bird at full load.

Just got my swiftec mc462 today. Replaced a tt volcano II. I nearly crapped. Gained 5 degrees in temp. From 47C to 52. Took everything apart removed the little rubber feet added a washer to increase tension on the hs. AAAAAHHHHHH. Now the little minx does 41 on sisoft burnin. After about an hour of UT it did get up to 43C. Oh and I increased up to 1466mHz and from 1.75 volts to 1.85. So yeah with a little work (had to take the mb out 3 times it turned out to be a very nice hs. The mounting system is safe, even if you do have to tweak it as I did. HTH

I'm using a Taisol CGK760092 on my Athlon 1.2. Idling at 36C and 44C under load. That's with the stock fan too.

Check out Anand's Socket-A/Socket-370 Cooler Roundup. It has just about every modern cooler except the VolcanoII.
