Need a heatskink/fan for my new 3500 winnie

[imported_w4rr3n]

Just bought an AMD 3500 winchester...

Which Heatsink/fan combo should I get for it?

I was looking at these 2, but any other suggestions are welcome.

Thermaltake

Zalman

Trying to buy this ASAP!

i have the 7000 version in alum/copper and it does a great job, really quiet and nice
if you will be moving the ase a lot get the Al/Cu version of the 7700, otherwise the copper will make up to 2*C difference in temps. Also, make sure it fits, the 7000 is only just fitting my Neo2 because of fowling the agp slot

Also look at the Thermalright XP90 (or 120 if your board can fit it). These have the lowest thermal resistance of all the current heatsinks out there.

If you don't plan to overclock and you want QUIET (and don't mind a bit higher temps), go with the Zalman.

HTH.

When I buy this one

thermalright

what else do I need with it?

 

[foofoo]

you should buy it at the place i linked or somewhere not newegg for this (their price is really high)- there is a big price difference and svc is a reputable dealer.
anyway, you will need a 92 mm fan
check out any of these

Some arctic silver and a 92mm fan. I believe that thermalright, suggests using a Panaflow (panasonic) fan.

Dang foofoo, SVC prices ARE better. $30 for an x90 and $7 for a sunon fan
Thanks for the recommendation.

 

[foofoo]

no problem.
and yeah, newegg is way overpriced on these.
