I'm thinking about OC'ing my 3000+ Venice, but, I need a new heatsink to do so, can you recommend a good one???
 
The zalman 9500 is suposed to be the best out there, but its got a hefty price of around $80.
 
The XP-120 has a price of about $55 and keeps my Venice which is OCed to 2.5Ghz at 40C under load. It's Awesome.
 
Thermalright SI 120 has gotten some really good reviews. I'm getting ready to install a Thermaltake Tower112 today, and although it looks like it'll do the job, it is really heavy. The SI 120 looks to be pretty light in comparison, and used along with a good fan, should work really well....from what I've read about it anyway.

i OC'd my bro's 3000+ venice to 2.7GHz on air cooling.
wich is now under full load at 63*C ( and that with a 50% speed increase)
so, i cn only reccoment this one.
its very light , about 500g. its really easy to fit, it has 5 years of warranty ( keramic bearings) and it comew with good thermal paste
and it is super silent :D
