Alright, I am getting a http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16811119137]Cooler Master RC-690[/url] plus a E4500 (cheaper for some reason), and I would like to know which cooler to get. I am considering the following:

Cooler Master HyperTX2 (got this one for $7 with s+h): Tom's hardware recommended this for a budget build, and right now, I can get it for $11.83 including shipping and handling with rebate

Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 PRO: $35

Sunbeam CR-SW-775: $20, with very similar construction to Arctic Freezer. Any advice would be welcome

Based on price/performance, the cooler master sounds like the best deal.

TYVM! That is what I was thinking, especially since it is only $5 without S+H...

About a year ago, i was able to get an AC Freezer for $20 shipped. If you look around, you might find it. Unfortunately, it was at a random place in CA that I do not remember. Sorry

You can get the new CM Hyper 212 for $23.00 AR from ClubIT.com - more sucure mounting than the TX2 and better performance.

You can buy the Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro for $18.54 at Ewiz.com. That's the lowest price that I can find. I have shopped at Ewiz.com before and their service is great.

You've just missed the Big Typhoon @ NewEgg. Was $18 plus $6 shipping two hours ago.

CM Hyper TX2 and AC Freezer 7 Pro are both $21.99 at newegg. I can't tell the difference, except the AC F7P has a better user rating. Guess that's the one I'm going to get, if I can't find a Thermalright Ultima-90 for less than $40...

Same performance. I think TX2 is FREE AR plus ship @ ZZF. See hot deals forum.
