If you want to save a few bucks, cools as good as the above under load.

The heatsink it comes with is pretty nice. Unless you plan on doing some very intense overclocking, you really don't need an aftermarket cooler.

Wow some nice heavyweights there.

That ZEROtherm scored really well in comparison tests. Kicked my Katana II's butt. I've been eyeing up the OCZ gladiator max for my next cooler.

Get the V8 you wont be dissapointed. I have yet to see my 955BE go over 45c even after 4hrs on Prime95

Great cooler!

Ive actually read some reviews where that cooler is quite shocking for cooling AMD chips apparently its worse that the Tuniq 120 (1st release) so might want to have a wee look at some more reviews
