Yo, guys. Just checking to see if any of you have heard of any superb P4 coolers out there. I'm looking at the Indigo Orb, but I know ThermalTake bases their mediocre cooling solutions on looks rather than performance. How about GlobalWin? Which models?

I'm looking for one in particular that isn't TOO loud (>35dBA) and won't break my wallet.

Thank you for your input and suggestions.

I'm thinking an Indigo Orb for my 1.7GHz P4; but I'm open for opinions too.

How well do those cool? Also, they don't look like they're for a P4. They look like they're for something with a smaller core, like P3 or a Thunderbird...????

My answer lies in this review.

Here.

ThermalTake Indigo Orb. Besides, it doesn't break my wallet and is considerably quieter than my 7k Delta I had sitting here next to my bed....3 feet away max??? Yeah, sounds about right. Nope, not deaf yet either. But one thing's for sure..you can hear it in the kitchen. :D

Thanks for the suggestions guys.

Thank you Mikewarrior2 for the PM about the GamePC HSF review!!!

Before you make up your mind Thermaltake is soon to realease two brand new HSF's. It looks like they are going to be called the SuperDragon Orb and the Golder Orb 3? Anyway, I'm sketchy on the details, but if these work on a P4 this is what I'm going to get.

Check it!

Those pics of the DragonOrb and the pics that WSP linked, are definitely not P4 coolers.
