Use coupon code EMCYTZT289 (exp. 2/12 or until funds end D: )

You probably need to be a Newegg newsletter subscriber. Only one coupon code per product so you can't stack.

EDIT: Here are some of the better deals I found. Each one has free shipping and a rebate, making for a bigger discount (15% taken off original price) assuming you get the rebate. Also, each one supports all the current AMD and Intel platforms. Use a cashback credit card for another point or two.

I just got the A70 a few weeks ago. I REALLY like it. Much better than the Gemini II it replaced.

"Tower" style usually gets lower CPU temperatures than the style that blows down, at the cost of higher chipset/VRM temps.

True but if you don't have a case wide enough, down blowing is your only option. Makes very little sense to buy a new case just to accommodate a tall HSF if you already have a nice case. It is what it is. :\

Understood, the Gemini II also resulted in a bent mobo no matter what I tried. This in turn resulted in a lower FSB speeds, with out crashing.
