    Hi everyone.

    I'm changing the mobo in my rig, and am going to take the opportunity to change my processors HSF from the stock one.

    I'm looking in the Komplett range of Socket 939 coolers:

    and I'm considering getting this:

    and a seperate 12cm fan.

    Basically I need something that's quiet, effective, looks nice and could facilitate some overclocking if I go down that road.

    Suggestions welcome.

    Couldn't reccomend it more. Using cool and quiet I've never heard the fan on mine, excellent temperature and uses the stock mount, no need to remove your mainboard. Cheap also.

    or... *cue music: Carl Orff - O Fortuna*

    THIS ONE, THIS ONE.... or THIS ONE. The latter being the one I have sitting here ready to be lapped, finally found somewhere that does 2000 grit paper :D have a read around some reviews online. The 3 I just linked to are the BIG KAHUNAS of the air cooling world atm.

    The Juries still out as to which is the best, but the Tuniq Tower is edging every so slightly ahead, with the Tt BT 2nd and Scythe Infinity 3rd, depending on your case, setup, cooling... etc.

    If on a budget then get the AF64 Pro. As you linked to a €57 cooler i'm guessing you aren't :D Imo, get the Tuniq Tower. Its cheaper than the Infinity and offers better cooling.
