What's the best SocketA heatsink to start with if you want to attach an 80mm fan?

I want to attach an 80mm fan to a heatsink for a 1Ghz SocketA heatsink.

What heatsink would start with?

I would guess that the Taisol CGK would be good since it is 80mm x 60mm. I have been thinking about doing this myself but I haven't had the time to give it a try.

Anyone out there tried this with the Taisol?

You may want to try this: fandaptor.

That way you can pick whatever heatsink you want, use any size fan you want, and there won't be any deadzones.
