What would be the best heatsink/fan for FCPGA Intel Pentium III ? Would GlobalWin FOP32-1 work ?

I get good performance out of the 3 Thermaltake Golden Orbs that I am currently using. They work good for me.

PEP66t choose the sunon fan for less noise or the Y-tech for higher performance.
it's works great! :)

the GW FOP-32 would work fine , but if youve got the bucks get an Alpha.

The FOP32-1 works just fine - I've got 2 on my 2 x PIII 750Es and with good thermal paste they run @ 28C idle/36C flat out. If I run them @ 997MHz this changes to 32C/42C, which I think is pretty damn good. Sure, the Alphas are good coolers and have a higher bragging factor, but personally I think it's just plain stupid to pay through the nose for (maybe) one or two degrees less. But hey, that's just me....

thermaltake golden orb is $20 bucks and it runs very fast and is gold(obviously) which cools much faster then most tin or composite metals and developes an area of saftey for your processor allowing for overclocking if you wish. It out performs in test run by slashdot and a few other popular sites other heatsinks and fans

I got two PAL-6035 hs/f cooling my dually rig nicely. Keeps both P3 700@987 running around 36C in an Enlight 7237 mid-tower case. Not bad considering that the case is small.

I like the taisol, it is originally made for the AMD but I have it on one of my dual cpu.
