Heatstink.

[aznrob69]

I was wondering if any of you know a good heatstink for the 1366 socket.

how much are you looking to spend?

I went with this one as it's a good price even compared to The Egg. Also, it's seems like a good trade off between size and performance. The size of the Noctua NH-D14(?) scared me off.

that is a very good heatsink

How tall is the Thermalright Venomous? Would it fit this case?http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811133046&cm_re=thermaltake-_-11-133-046-_-Product? Also any other sugguestions?

Dimensions: 127 x 63 x 160 mm. That case is 200mm wide. From a picture of the case it doesn't look like you'd have trouble. This is a guess by me, but you can see what I'm basing it on.

Hey mate i am in the same market as you and i am looking at the megahalem although you have to buy seperate fans to attach onto it. Looking for the right one is a pain but once you get it set up you will just smash the intel HSF out of the ball park.

I'm lookin to spend about $80 and only buying on newegg.

You shouldn't need to spend $80. Along with the Ven-X, the other 2 that I see listed at the top of the pyramid, most often, are the Prolimatech Megahalems and the Noctua NH-D14 which is apparently the best performer but is also huge and expensive.

I have found the Xigmatek S1283 meets my needs nicely. Maybe not the top of the chart, but I think a good compromise between size/weight - price/performance.

TRUE can be had for $47.99 from SVC. Go to their clearance section.
