Jing CPU heatsink?

[FIG_JAM963]

I want to replace the stock AMD heatsink for a better one, and i have come across the Thermal Take Jing. I like the way it looks, but is the performance worth the cash? CAD$80.40

it looks like a solid built unit, only quip would be the finish on the contact surface on bottom, but it seems a tad pricey just the same, i do like the way the fans are secured to it, makes for easy cleaning when you need to.

I have found a few others that i like:

Noctua NH-D14 @ CAD89.99

Zalman CNPS9900NT @ CAD72.99

Thermaltake Frio @ CAD69.99

if you get the zalman, watch your hands, i hear those things get well...sharp.

i'll keep that in mind . In your previous post you mentioned the Contact surface finish, is there a difference between polished and dull?

They smoothed the edges and improved performance drastically.
