Looks like a nice deal but I'm more into tower style with the fan either inside the heatsink or on top of it. I'm picky with this stuff!

Apologies for going totally off-topic.

Do check out the Scythe Ninja, it's a very capable heatsink, you can even run it passively if you have good ventilation.

Yeah, I had considered the 9500/9700 but again, they're a bit expensive. The Scythe Ninja seems like a pretty good option, the optional fan would go on top of the heatsink right?
