I am using Ninja (Ver A) with 120mm Scythe on my quad Q6600 undervolted to 1.0Vc. With ambients around 27C, I am idling in mid 30s with nearly silent operation. Running 3.0ghz at 1.25Vc, I was in low 40s and mid 50s fully loaded, fans were audible but still pretty quiet. I like cool and quiet PC!

Thanks for the info
I went with: http://www.tuniq.com.tw/Cooler%20Info/Tower-120.htm

I got a Tuniq on a gonga sale a month or so ago for like $30. When I got it, I said "It's Huge". It's bigger and heavier compared to Ninja, so decided to keep it in the box for a while. But let us know how your experience comes out.

if your going for a modest overclock like sub 3.0ghz then the ninja will be fine. If your aiming at higher, then your best getting either a Thermalright 120 Extreme, or The tuniq tower.

I'm not using my tuniq on a quad, but it does seem to do very well on the e6750. I ran orthos for an hour + at 3.704ghz 1.64 vcore in bios and temps stabilized at 66c. I run it everyday at 1.53 vcore in bios and 3.512, load temps 50c, idle 30c.
