Which one is better for cooling a socket 939 X2 4200+ for overclocking? The TR 90 Ultra (not Ultima) or the TR SI-128? I was going to go with the 90 Ultima, but with the socket 939 bolt through kit, I can't install it so it blows air out the back of my case. It would blow up at the psu.

I'm thinking that the SI-128 might be better with the larger 120mm fan, but the 90 Ultra would be drawing air off my RAM and out the back of my case with a 120mm case fan right behind it. I'm thinking that this would help the air flow in my case instead of blowing air down at the motherboard with the SI-128.

What do you think? Which of these two would you go with if you could only choose these two coolers?

Anyone? Did I ask this question in the wrong section? I figured that overclockers would know more about what I'm asking than the cooling guys.

Thanks, but I think that I'd rather grab an extra brick from when I did my walkway and tie it to my motherboard with zip ties.
